Throwout bearing bad?
Driving home today and my clutch randomly felt very light but not in a bad way at first. It felt soft and required very little pressure to push to the floor. Almost like that new pressure plate/clutch feeling when you get a new one in. I just replaced the master slave, clutch, flywheel 11 months ago.
I pull into the garage and there is a high pitch squeaking noise when the pedal was released. When i pressed it to the floor the noise went away. Someone told me it may be the throwout bearing?

Could be the TO bearing or a loss of hydraulic pressure also. From what you describe I would lean toward hydraulic pressure loss, very light pedal and the TO bearing noise tells me that the TO bearing is not sitting on the PP fingers tightly.
Do a fluid change or just bleed the system to see if the pedal goes back to feeling like it did when the clutch was changed 11 months ago

my car made the same noise you are describing, with the pedal released and would go away as soon as i pressed the clutch pedal. in my car it ended up being the throwout bearing. This is what it looked like when it was removed...
