What data does MinPluto collect?
MinPluto by itself does not collect any data about you or any other user.
However, please keep in mind that on other MinPluto instances, the instance operator can log your IP address like any other server could.
What is a YouTube frontend?
A frontend is it’s own UI and service that serves data from another platform such as YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, etc.
Why use a different frontend and not use the real thing?
There are multiple reasons to use a frontend like MinPluto. Reasons such as like privacy, to avoid being tracked from invasive companies; speed, to avoid the bloated pages that these platforms have…frontends are commonly lightweight; and another reason is maybe to avoid ads, all frontends don’t serve ads like these platforms do.
