  I’m on Android w/ PipePipe & GrayJay and have been experiencing issues with videos loading a little then buffering for like 5 minutes

  Same setup, same results. I do intentionally keep the resolution low though.

  Same with Piped. Pinchflat downloads it so even if it were throttled when it fetches, it will play at local speeds
