Redirect to original doesn't happen in Chromium #1001

Steps to reproduce the bug:

  1. Install LibRedirect.
  2. Enable Invidious and select any instance (e.g., https://invidious.privacyredirect.com).
  3. Open https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ in the browser.
  4. Click the "Watch on YouTube" button.
  5. The redirect does not occur (the page just refreshes).

The bug is reproducible on Chromium (129). It does not happen in Firefox. As a workaround, the "Redirect to original" button in the LibRedirect menu works.

I'm using Arch Linux

UPD: Just checked, this bug also applies to Redlib.
