    I don’t understand why anyone would use piped bot’s links at all.

    I’m on the boat where I think it’s better to use an addon or something to rewrite the URLS in your browser automatically rather than relying on a bot to do it. Firefox has “Redirector” plugin which can rewrite all youtube links to whatever invidious/piped/etc. instance you want.

      I think it’s for awareness. I’ll never forget Piped exists now.

        You setup the automatic redirector… You’ll forget youtube exists, since it works browser-wide… and will interpret ALL youtube links.

      I know, and I use that. But on a IOS device I haven’t found a good way to do this
