I made a user script for youtube that adds a piped button beside each vid.

Open link in next tab

YouTube - Add Watch on Piped button to each video

Add "Watch on Piped" option to YouTube video context menu

I made a user script that will make a button on each video which jump you to piped, that way you can continue to use YT to manage your subscriptions and see your feed, but you never have to watch to video there
