    The sole point of LibreTube is to use piped proxies? Odd, you figure they wouldn’t include an option to make their entire app pointless.

      It literally says “disable this only if you always use a VPN” below the button. If you use a VPN, there’s no point in slowing down the thing by using a proxy.

        I know it does but you said “That kills the point of LibreTube bruh.” So if you can use a VPN, and there’s no point to slowing it down…it doesn’t sound like disabling it “kills the point” at all, like you first said.

        Basically, your two messages contradict each other.

          Not really. The toggle does kill the point of the app but the VPN is used instead. It’s a welcome feature for VPN users, not a stupid decision.
