So I created an open-source Lemmy bot to reply to posts/comments with YouTube links with converted Piped links to preserve your privacy.
Piped is an open-source alternative privacy-friendly frontend to YouTube. You can watch the same content from YouTube without connecting to Google’s servers.

To add on to this tip, for anyone who is reluctant to or cannot install an extension on their browser, you can copy and paste the YouTube link into the search bar of your favorite Piped instance and hit Enter.
Thanks for this. I had just been manually replacing the
youtube.com
part of the URL to my favourite Piped instance. The breadth of the addon is great.Thnk you so very much for that recommendation!
Good suggestion, thanks!
