So, recently got freetube downloaded, and love every bit of it. But I still forget myself, and put youtube into the url bar… So, is it possible to redirect Yt to Freetube instead?

Thanks

    Electron which is Google

    How did you figure that out? Because Electron is based on Chromium?

    In which case, I suppose you don’t trust Brave because it’s Google too.

      Yeah Electron is Chromium hahahah. Sorry for the dumb abbreviation.

      Its bloat for sure. An extra app, it takes a time to load and all. Has really great features though, makes Youtube tolerable.

      No, I have ungoogled Chromium laying around but I am simply sad that Firefox Webapps or actual Apps are not a thing.

            No they don’t: you’re free to create your own fork, or compile out the stuff you don’t like from the main repo - which is what all the Chromium-based privacy-focused browsers out there do, including Brave.
