Started using Piped a few days ago. Worked like a charm... Then stopped. Now it's all sluggish and videos and stuff won't load. Didn't know where to look for updates on like, server troubles or whatever. Switched back to invidious for now, but still Piped is cooler?

it seems down most of the time, it’s such a hassle but I ain’t giving up yet

I was hoping to somehow hear from the devs, some explanation behind the downtime like "Hug of death" or "Google fucked us" or whatever. :P

As of right now it's unusable for me, so I'm in Invidious. Though I have kept a tab of Piped open to refresh every few hours just to check.
