Have you tried the LibRedirect browser add-on?

It automatically redirects you to FOSS, privacy-focused Alternative Front-ends of big-tech sites/non private platforms.

There are alternative front-ends to YouTube, Twitter, Medium, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, etc.

Each of these sites has a list of Alternative Front-ends' servers which you can select for the service to redirect to. You can also add Custom Instances.

So, when you click on a YouTube link, say https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ it automatically redirects you to https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ for example.

Chromium/Chrome/Edge: https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect/blob/master/chromium.md

LibRedirect git link: https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect

Do check it out, it's fun and has a lot of interesting sections in it.

@frankie The F-Droid app UntrackMe does something similar.

@Parienve
Yup, though I noticed it doesn't work within the mobile browser!

@frankie
Technically you can use it from your browser by long-pressing the link and choosing "open in external app" (which is annoying and LibRedirect solves this), but where it really shines is for links in other apps.
