So far this is the only bot on Lemmy that actually adds to the experience. Well done!
How about the piped.video bot?
So insanely useful on the mobile app.
Nah, on mobile more of my alternative YouTube frontend apps recognize plain YouTube links than recognize piped.video ones.
You are probably missing Libretube in that case! ;)
No, I've got that. Piped links give me a choice of LibreTube or Firefox, while YouTube links give me a choice of those two plus NewPipe and YouTube ReVanced.
I used Newpipe for ages but it seems to struggle with the recent wave of blocking attempts by Google so I just switched to Libretube, that has the benefit of Sponsorblock and promised Dearrow support with the next release!
Haven't seen it yet. In other news, clicking that link caused Jerboa to get trapped in its browser. xD
In the long run I’d like people to post the original and let us use our preferred privacy redirects to go to Piped or Invidious if we want. Of course for the time being it raises awareness of the alternatives.
Thanks, I like to hear that!
