Pipeline playback freezes / choppy playback

Does anyone else get choppy playback with pipeline ? Every few seconds there are freezes and frames dropping. Is this as limitation of the app? Is there another youtube player with smoother playback?

So if I understood correctly . You just browse to this site via frefox to view YouTube videos ? Is there an app that uses this to view videos ?

Yes, FreeTube uses public Invidious instances under the hood, although they are currently under heavy strain due to Google/YouTube aggressively banning them for the last several months:

By default, the public Invidious instance used in FreeTube is NerdVPN’s.
