this list includes youtube; what do you use in place of youtube if you want to find videos like this one? 1NoocEuep2s

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

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.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

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

[–] vyitnoomyr@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

thanks!

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.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

it's okay, the user named cowbee answered my question.

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago

Ah, okay, phew! That's a relief... and Sorry againπŸ˜…

there is already an option to block entire google eco system in NextDNS

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago

That's cool. I'm still new to the privacy community, so I only share things I've learned. But this is really helpful.
