Added ytify to README 
I am not sure if piped's policy is inline with the service ytify provides but It's been a few weeks it has been using the piped API and it has provided a very stable infrastructure support for the project so I think it may have a place here in this list.

I would understand if this PR is closed, still want to thank the Piped Team & community for maintaining such an awesome API.

An open-source alternative frontend for YouTube which is efficient by design.
# The Problem
YouTube has an extremely invasive privacy policy which relies on using user data in unethical ways. You give them a lot of data - ranging from ideas, music taste, content, political opinions, and much more than you think.
By using Piped, you can freely watch and listen to content without the fear of prying eyes watching everything you are doing.
