Yep. Personally use Piped, but it's the same idea. It basically saves me hours of watching useless videos everyday.

Now if only Piped wouldn't error out and be unusable for 10 minutes at a time every couple hours...

I have been trying to figure out why since I started using it... searches spin forever, videos spin forever, some videos just spit "Error 1003" immediately, and then they become accessible 10 minutes later. I even tried filing an issue to no avail. I may end up looking for other alternatives.

Have you tried changing the instances? Some instances simply perform better than others.

I have, but the ones I tried weren't much better. I looked again and there's a few new ones, so I'll try those and update if they work faster/more consistently.
