If their self install instructions were worth a shit I might agree with you.

This. I tried to self-host Piped and it was a PITA. I am experienced in self-hosting but setting it up behind a reverse proxy was next to impossible and basically no guides exist.

I did vidious, very easy. Sadly max 720p if you proxy from YouTube and if you proxy from your instance 1080p buffers like mad even on a bidirectional 1gig internet on a gaming PC style server. So back to unlock for me since a lot of my videos watched are 4k

I don't host an instance, so I don't know how hard it is. You can choose any popular instance like kavin.rocks if hosting doesn't seem like a viable option.
