Hi, for some reason piped.rocks worked painfully slow for me (I live in Chile). So I decided to write a small script to compare the response from every instance listed on the Wiki of Piped.

For me, the winner was piped.garudalinux.org, but I leave this script here if it is helpful to anyone.

It is not rocket science, and maybe doesn’t even meet good practices of programming, but worked for me.

Anyway, thanks, I like LibreTube as an alternative to NewPipe (I alternate between the two, LOL, I don’t even use the official Youtube app).

Regards and TGIF

    There’s also https://status.piped.video which allows you to view the uptimes of all public instances, and their might be added something like that to the instances api in the future too.

    Even if an instance is responding quick for some time, it’s not guaranteed it’s also stable and has enough capacity to handle all the traffic.

      Yeah, I know, but you can run the script several times. :)
