I’ve been using Piped (non-tracking alternative front end) and the video quality dropped a wee while ago. Just trying to work out where the problem is. Same video was much clearer on youtube than through Piped.
Thought I would inquire here before I try a different Piped instance.

    Could be something to do with YouTube’s new adblock policy. They confirmed they are temporarily disabling playback for users with adblockers. Not sure how Piped blocks ads but it could be to do with this.
