I'm probably stupid, but I can't add a regex exception to the youtube redirection... In the exception part of the extension, I added ^https\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com$ but it redirects me to freetube directly. I just want to go to the home page so I can click on the playlist links which will be redirected. This is to compensate for the lack of playlist management in freetube. If anyone has an idea for me, or if I'm not doing things right? THANKS

This is a janky workaround, but I use the standard invidious advanced setting to use Freetube no regex and then in tandem with https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/open-in-private-mode/fcmoifjllifgjedihhcmbhjmfakcadcm

If you allow both extensions to work incognito/inprivate then the right click open in private window = open in freetube.

Ok, thanks a lot!

Actually, you can just open in new tab to trigger it (No additional extension needed)

It might be rude to suggest a competing product but https://einaregilsson.com/redirector/

has more freedom
