I've seen those piped links all the time but I'm still not really sure what the advantage is, or what problem it's solving.

Would you mind explaining a bit about why you made piped, and why I should probably use it?

Google can't track the videos you watched using Piped, all they see is the Piped server fetching it from them to deliver it to you. Also no ads, and you can control things like recommendations to not get sucked into an endless YT loop.
