Invidious and Piped fix this issue. You can use LibRedirect to automatically redirect all YouTube links to Invidious or Piped.
Makes sense and improves privacy but they’re not going to win on speed, not even on Firefox, unless you host a private instance or use a nearby-hosted one.
This doesn’t have any impact on video load times on Piped, does it?
Why would it? I don’t think your browser makes any direct connection to youtube.com when using Piped, all goes through a proxy server of your choice (hence the name).
