Here's the GitHub link if you want it for a chromium based browser: https://github.com/libredirect/browser_extension
Thanks, wasn't aware of that 😇
There's a Firefox redirect extension.. when I used to use reddit I redirected www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com
Yes Freetube.
But... maybe you also want to use an Invidious instance that uses googlevideo javascript instead of proxying the videos? So you dont actually suck their resources.
Because Freetube runs on Electron which is Google, and I am not sure how hardened it is, probably just "not bad".
Do you know any minimal Invidious UI you can run from a Podman/Docker container? Like just the frontend, so that I can use Firefox instead of that. I think having that as a base and adding the freetube features would be great.

Use your favorite search engine and you'll probably find something. Or self host a Piped instance. It's very similar to Invidious but imo even better.
Maybe we'll eventually see a version of FreeTube running on Tauri one day (one can dream).
Damn, nice project!
Electron which is Google
How did you figure that out? Because Electron is based on Chromium?
In which case, I suppose you don't trust Brave because it's Google too.
Yeah Electron is Chromium hahahah. Sorry for the dumb abbreviation.
Its bloat for sure. An extra app, it takes a time to load and all. Has really great features though, makes Youtube tolerable.
No, I have ungoogled Chromium laying around but I am simply sad that Firefox Webapps or actual Apps are not a thing.
And Electron uses V8 which is again Google.
V8 is open source. Just like Chromium, Google doesn't control it.
