Can you, like, just post the YouTube link so my browser extension can re-write it to the Invidious instance running in my basement instead of one that's slow, overloaded, and halfway across the world?
Anyone who cares is already re-writing Youtube links, and posting links to random Invidious instance is just inconveniencing us.
And the same goes to anyone else posting Invidious links and thinking they're "sticking it to the man". You're not. Most people don't care, and you're only sticking it to the people who do care by forcing us to use a non-preferred instance.
Just ๐ post ๐ the ๐ Youtube ๐ link.
It's just as easy for you to copy the ?watch part than it is for me to change it to the YouTube link that I"m not using. The only man I'm trying to stick it to is my boss who has youtube.com on a block list.
