So I mostly transitioned to Piped and ever since I was wondering how it works. I read up on it and while I get what it says, I still don’t feel like I really understand…

    From a user’s perspective, Piped does basically 2 things:

    • It acts as a middleman between you and YouTube, so YouTube can’t trace your activities back to you.
    • It gives you its own front-end free of ads and trackers.

      Yeah, I understood the high level overview, but wanted more detail on the how. Still helpful though, thanks!
