Original youtube link?
Can someone make a bot that converts these piped links into real youtube links, because they are highly annoying.
It use the same path logic as YouTube. You only need to replace “piped.video” with “youtube.com”.
That only works if you’re using the website. I’m in sync and just want it to open in the YouTube app.
It’s still possible but that requires a few steps to works.
If you’re using the official YouTube app, you can press the three vertical dots button on the website, you should have an option called “Open app”.
If you’re using ReVanced/Vanced, and because Google has made poor design choices about handling links, you can go into the app settings to tell it to handle every YouTube URL. This should works when clicking a YouTube link from Sync. However, for links that you changed manually from Piped to YouTube, Chrome doesn’t provide a way to open in app. Firefox can do that, but if it’s not your default browser, this option requires you to change browser every time you want to see a video inside the app.
The best option is to use “Open Link With…” which provide an easy way to open apps from your browser. It’s as simple as sharing the website to “Open Link With…” and select your app eg. YouTube/ReVanced/Vanced/etc. You can also set it as your browser which should do that automatically but I haven’t tested it so YMMV.
I hope this was useful!

It’s annoying because it’s slow. It’s constantly buffering where the real youtube just instantly starst playing.
Then our experiences differ, though I must agree some instances (which you can switch in the settings - maybe there’s one closer to you or less stressed), including the official ones, have a meager uptime (compared to YouTube, ofc). Sometimes they’re offline for a few minutes and very rarely they’re broken for longer due to YouTube changing something.
It doesn’t always work. And I think it might be related to where you are in the world. For the first month when piped links started showing up, it straight up never started playing for me. It works alright now.
Oh, sorry! In the last 30 or so posts, I always included both. This time, for some reason, I thought no one would care. Thanks for your feedback, I’ll make sure to include both in the future.
IMHO video links should always be YouTube first, then third party mirror second, in the body or comments. Here are the reasons:
- YouTube is the primary source. Always prioritize the primary source when you’re sourcing.
- Think of the URL being shared as the primary key to a database record. Lemmy can use it to detect dupes. With YouTube URL there’s like 3 forms, discounting timestamps. With piped links the possibility expanded to 3+(number of piped instances on the web). This massively increases the likelihood of accidental reposts.
- Give people a choice of whether they want to watch on the original site, or on a piped instance of their own choosing. When you link to a piped instance link you rob people of that choice.
- A piped instance can choke or go offline at any time. YouTube is close to 100% uptime.
- Userscript wise, it’s trivial to map YouTube URLs to a user’s piped instance of choice, but it’s so much more tedious to detect and map every single piped instance.
