LibreTube views

When I watch videos through Libretube does it give the uploader of the video another view on YouTube?
Thanks

I donโ€™t know for sure but Iโ€™m inclined to say: no. Itโ€™s not the YouTube website. It doesnโ€™t know if youโ€™ve watched the whole video. Plus: Piped servers are proxies for YouTube, that are used by a lot of people. At most a Piped proxy could give one view to a video, for thousands, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of actual viewers.

I got you, but I want the guy who owns the channel to make moneyโ€ฆ

Then youโ€™re going to have to a) use YouTube without ads, or b) support them some other way (donations, merch, etc.)
