Wanted to share the libredirect Firefox plugin, for abandoning Youtube. - eviltoast

This is a plugin I found recently and really enjoy. It gives you the opportunity to redirect several webpages to alternatives. For example Youtube to FreeTube or Piped. If I search for youtube in Firefox, FreeTube automatically opens and shows me my feed. I like it, I use it, I can recommend it.

        Install it on your Chromecast, that’s what I’ve done. No you can’t cast but you can log in and find your history and such and pull the video up there

          How fo you install it on there? I was under the impression the the Chromecast didn’t install anything, but served web-based applications housed on the external servers.

            Only the first and maybe second gen is like that. If you get a current one with Google TV, or any Android TV box for thar matter, you can install any apk you want. Either through its special store or by sideloading with a browser or ftp or whatever you want
