1. The default instance is [FramaTube](https://framatube.org/), however more can be added via **Settings** → **Content** → **PeerTube instances**

!!! note

NewPipe is available on the main [F-Droid](https://www.f-droid.org)'s repository. We recommend that you use NewPipe's own [F-Droid repository](https://newpipe.net/FAQ/tutorials/install-add-fdroid-repo) instead to get faster updates.

!!! Warning

When using NewPipe, your IP address will be visible to the video providers used. Consider using a [VPN](vpn.md) or [Tor](https://www.torproject.org) if your [threat model](basics/threat-modeling.md) requires hiding your IP address.

### Invidious

![Invidious logo](assets/img/frontends/invidious.svg#only-light){ align=right }
![Invidious logo](assets/img/frontends/invidious-dark.svg#only-dark){ align=right }

**Invidious** is a free and open-source frontend for YouTube that is also self-hostable.

There are a number of public instances, with some instances having [Tor](https://www.torproject.org) onion services support.

[:octicons-home-16: Homepage](https://invidious.io){ .md-button .md-button--primary }
[:octicons-server-16:](https://instances.invidious.io){ .card-link title="Public Instances"}

[:octicons-heart-16:](https://invidious.io/donate/){ .card-link title=Contribute }

!!! warning

Invidious does not proxy video streams by default. Videos watched through Invidious will still make direct connections to Google's servers (e.g. `googlevideo.com`); however, some instances support video proxying—simply enable *Proxy videos* within the instances' settings or add `&local=true` to the URL.

!!! tip

Invidious is useful if you want to disable JavaScript in your browser, such as [Tor Browser](https://www.torproject.org/) on the Safest security level. It does not provide privacy by itself, and we don’t recommend logging into any accounts.

When self-hosting, it is important that you have other people using your instance as well in order for you to blend in. You should be careful with where and how you are hosting Invidious, as other peoples' usage will be linked to your hosting.

When you are using an Invidious instance, make sure to read the privacy policy of that specific instance. Invidious instances can be modified by their owners and therefore may not reflect their associated privacy policy. Some instances have Tor .onion addresses which may grant some privacy as long as your search queries don't contain PII (Personally Identifiable Information).

### Piped

!!! recommendation

![Piped logo](assets/img/frontends/piped.svg){ align=right }

**Piped** is a free and open-source frontend for YouTube that is also self-hostable.

Piped requires JavaScript in order to function and there are a number of public instances.

[:octicons-heart-16:](https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped#donations){ .card-link title=Contribute }

!!! tip

Piped is useful if you want to use [SponsorBlock](https://sponsor.ajay.app) without installing an extension or to access age-restricted content without an account. It does not provide privacy by itself, and we don’t recommend logging into any accounts.

When self-hosting, it is important that you have other people using your instance as well in order for you to blend in. You should be careful with where and how you are hosting Piped, as other peoples' usage will be linked to your hosting.

When you are using a Piped instance, make sure to read the privacy policy of that specific instance. Piped instances can be modified by their owners and therefore may not reflect their associated privacy policy.

## LBRY/Odysee

### Librarian

!!! recommendation

![Librarian logo](assets/img/frontends/librarian.svg#only-light){ align=right }
![Librarian logo](assets/img/frontends/librarian-dark.svg#only-dark){ align=right }

**Librarian** is a free and open-source frontend for the LBRY/Odysee video sharing network that is also self-hostable.

There are a number of public instances, with some instances having [Tor](https://www.torproject.org) onion services support.

[:octicons-repo-16: Repository](https://codeberg.org/librarian/librarian){ .md-button .md-button--primary }

[:octicons-code-16:](https://codeberg.org/librarian/librarian){ .card-link title="Source Code" }

!!! warning

Librarian does not proxy video streams by default. Videos watched through Librarian will still make direct connections to Odysee's servers (e.g. `odycdn.com`); however, some instances may enable proxying which would be detailed in the instance's privacy policy.

!!! tip

Librarian is useful if you want watch LBRY content on mobile without mandatory telemetry and if you want to disable JavaScript in your browser, as is the case with [Tor Browser](https://www.torproject.org/) on the Safest security level.

When self-hosting, it is important that you have other people using your instance as well in order for you to blend in. You should be careful with where and how you are hosting Librarian, as other peoples' usage will be linked to your hosting.

When you are using a Librarian instance, make sure to read the privacy policy of that specific instance. Librarian instances can be modified by their owners and therefore may not reflect the default policy. Librarian instances feature a "privacy nutrition label" to provide an overview of their policy. Some instances have Tor .onion addresses which may grant some privacy as long as your search queries don't contain PII (Personally Identifiable Information).
