I thought I was being mild by skirting the point and use irony. It is a somewhat vapid comment that adds nothing to the discussion. Plus it's rather self centered and unaware of others. The combination of those factors struck me as rather short sighted, to use a meek term.

This is a plugin I found recently and really enjoy. It gives you the opportunity to redirect several webpages to alternatives. For example Youtube to FreeTube or Piped. If I search for youtube in Firefox, FreeTube automatically opens and shows me my feed. I like it, I use it, I can recommend it.
I’d like for connect to redirect links of a certain kind. I don’t always want stuff to end up in my YouTube app, would rather that it opened in piped or something instead.
