Actually NewPipe isn't working at all since yesterday, as if youtube throttled the download speed to 1kb/s.

There were instructions in the pop-up message you got when updating the app: YouTube now discontinued that page. With Settings>Content>Content of main page>"+" button>Kiosk page>"Select a kiosk" you can get it back to the main page, but it's likely gone for good.
