For one, even if I wanted to use it, piped never works for me.

Second, on mobile, my alternative of choice doesn’t recognize everyone’s non-yt links, so it removes my choice in the matter.

Third, I have no reason to trust the weird-ass domains I see, and to un-fuck the url takes much more time then just handing out the original YT links and letting people choose for themselves how they view the video.

    The second, longer URL doesn’t bother me.

    But the tracking parameter usually found after? Can’t stand it. Manually remove it every time.

    Should I be replying to everyone with a “link with tracking removed”? :-/ Or maybe see if the Piped bot could offer the service.
