imo legal counsel should be fired for allowing this to air after the Madison tweets. 100% feels like this was a PR/Legal approved scripted video.

Might be something wrong with the main Piped instance. (I am a Luddite so I’m just guessing)

Good news is that Piped is a federated service like lemmy, so in the future you can just look at their instance list and try another: github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/wiki/Instances

Piped is currently generally broken: issue#2809

Other similar services had to patch too, because of changes on Youtube’s side. So now Piped works only some of the times, until it will get updated.

EDIT: Typo.

Dang, I wasn’t aware of that, thanks. Seems like FOSS front ends are fighting a cat and mouse game, judging from my experience with piped and nitter.

I assume an Invidious link would also be subject to the same youtube side issues then?

Invidious currently works for me, but reading in the Issue in their repo it seems there are still problems.

For whoever wants to try here’s invidious instances list , just add /watch?v=0cTpTMl8kFY after one instance’s link to get to the video.
