**Invidious** is a free and open source front end for YouTube that is also self-hostable. There are list of [public instances](https://instances.invidious.io). Some instances have [Tor](https://www.torproject.org) onion services support.
#### Use case
Invidious is useful if you want to disable JavaScript in your browser. It does not provide privacy by itself and we don’t recommend logging into any accounts.
#### Notes
Invidious does not proxy the video stream through its server by default. Videos watched through Invidious will still make direct connections to Google's servers (googlevideo.com), however, some instances support video proxying. This can be enabled by adding `&local=true` to the URL.

**Piped** is a free and open source front end for YouTube that is also self-hostable. Piped has 2 public instances at [piped.kavin.rocks](https://piped.kavin.rocks/) and [piped.mint.lgbt](https://piped.mint.lgbt/).
#### Use case
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.
#### Notes
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 an Piped instance, be sure to go 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.

The primary threat when using a video streaming platform is that your streaming habits and subscription lists could be used to profile you. You should combine these tools with a [VPN](/providers/vpn/) or [Tor](https://www.torproject.org/) to make it harder to profile your usage.
