Thx for comment. So, for Youtube Videos, i using the invidious.io instanz, with the Tor Browser and LibreWolf. Hope, that helps.

i'm aware of those platforms and i see your update to someone else about not speaking english, so now i can understand your response.

i'm asking how you lookup videos when you only have the identification number for a video on youtube.

You can convert YouTube links to invidious, just replace the YouTube section with the invidious instance. Example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQUEUM0t1y8

https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=nQUEUM0t1y8

Don't forget to put Libredirect.github.io in your Firefoxes!! It's the Intended Way to browse my Very Good Posts

I'm really sorry. Unfortunately, I don't know what you mean by 'ID', as I usually don't deal with IDs πŸ˜…. I normally just go to Invidious.io, select an instance there, and enter regular search terms to watch a video, just like on the real YouTube channel. That's it.
