Invidious should be known by more people as a replacement for Youtube.

On Invidious, you can watch all YouTube videos safely and without ads with ability to download all of them. Technically, it means Invidious acts as an intermediary between you and YouTube and plays videos without JavaScript. This also means privacy, that is Google will not be able to record you!

Thanks to several Firefox addons below, we can automatically change all youtube link to invidious instead, even the embed ones on webpages and social medias! This makes life easy.

Firefox addons :
Invidition (by booteille, public domain)
Invidio Quick Redirect (by Austin Moore, MIT/X11 license)
Invidious Redirect (by Doron Behar, public domain)
Invidicious (by JanKKM, MIT/X11 license)
Privacy Redirect (MIT/X11 license)

Also you can get rid of shady Youtube video downloader addons, Invidio.us having a built-in video downloader.
