In my own research today. I found out that the Newpipe app actually pulls the video from google servers, while Libretube pulls it from volunteer piped servers.
While the video never hangs in newpipe, the video hangs very often in libretube. The servers are either undergoing maintenance or are overloaded due to too many people using them.
Why doesn't libretube pull the video from google servers? Isn't our privacy already protected unless Google associates it with our account?
And I think it costs money to host piped servers.
So what's the reason?
