Share video-links as Invidious urls

[pred2k]

I imagine a setting to generate invidio.us/watch?v=... urls instead of youtube.com/watch?v=... when using the share function in NewPipe.

Was also already mentioned here, but that Issue is about implementing video playing via Invidious.

As you know opening links will already be supported (#1900) with v0.16.2.

Also use invidio.us for "open in browser" function!

This is a good idea, but maybe have it as a user setting. People might get annoyed if they don't want to share an invidio.us link.

Of course as a optional user setting.

And as extra maybe the possibility to choose between invidious instanes: https://github.com/omarroth/invidious/wiki/Invidious-Instances

That's a good idea. You could have a field where you can type in your instance, which would be nice for #1163.

I also vote for invidio.us to be the default, with the option to pick youtube. No need to be so modest. invidious is superior technically and in terms of privacy and freedom.

Probably best to close it, since...

Unless there's an alternative alternative?

invidio.us has shutdown, but there are other alternative working! instances. I would like leave the issue open and keep the bounty, just to promote these alternatives.

In the meantime i use the App UntrackMe for converting youtube (and twitter and instagram) urls into one of these privacy wrapping services.

Now shared links should use the redirect.invidious.io domain.

[opusforlife2]

I think the user should be allowed to configure which domain to use. For example, when I'm sharing a link with my contacts, I would use the kavin.rocks domain directly, as it is in India.

The redirect URL would be far more useful if it automatically redirected a user to the appropriate instance based on their IP address.
