Sorry to link to YouTube for this, but it's just such a great example of actual humor from the decades where it was allowed to joke about it.

I know we have piped bot, but you can just pink the piped version then you won't have to apologise for it.

I prefer people posting the original source, and I'll just let LibRedirect (on desktop) or LibreTube (on mobile) switch the link to my preferred Piped instance. I don't want to use random instances.

I feel like most people who feel strongly against YouTube will have it set up similarly to where you automatically get redirected when clicking a link anyways. You can always offer up a Piped link in the text box or the comments as an alternative.

If I want to watch a tiny circle spin for 5 minutes, I'll go to piped myself. Otherwise let's stick to youtube.

No, I just prefere it when my video actually loads on the same day.

I love the idea of piped but it’s always like… 240p and I have gigabit.
