I’m currently in the process of switching from YouTube to Piped and was getting fed up with rewriting YouTube links myself. I finally found an extension that can do this with a relatively easy setup:
Thought maybe more people might find this interesting. My setup is in the pic.
Edit: @[email protected] Just suggested using LibRedirect which is even better than Redirector. Also since Redirector isn’t really maintained anymore.
Do we want it to be ready for prime time, though?
As much as I like the effort, I fear that if it reaches a critical mass of popularity, Youtube will find a way to oppose it even more, making the experience shittier for everyone involved.
I hear you. And I use it all the time myself. I was just commenting on the idea of redirecting to it.
