Oh, I didn’t know about the bot. So I guess that’s Piped (https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped) which is a frontend like invidious (https://github.com/iv-org/invidious) and usually when it doesn’t work switching instance should do the job.

Newpipe is a different project: https://newpipe.net/

On desktop you can also use FreeTube: https://freetubeapp.io/

I’m confused about “new pipe links”.

Newpipe is an app. Do you have trouble setting it as a default app for youtube links?

I’m using SmartTube on my TvBox and live in fear it will stop working xD

There’s also a component for foobar2000 (yes, I’m GenX) called Youtube Source. You can search content, add results to foobar playlists and see the video (embedded in the skin or on a different window). Sometimes the video doesn’t load but restarting foobar it’s usually enough.
