Wonderful Czech group that I met last year at the #FloatingCastle festival in Slovenia.
Amazing music and great people
I hope to meet them this year as well at the festival.

Link for same but NO advert + no tracking...
@freeschool
There's no reason for this: most apps and browsers allow to automatically redirect to one of those websites.
For example I'm using fedilab and it shows a link to invidious.
Linking the YouTube one ensures better future proof, moreover that's the original source
Sounds like you mean it's more a standard than not, so most people are going to be redirected...?
Ok, probably missing something here myself. Do say more if it is standard to be redirected...
My question is, if it's not as standard isn't that cause enough to try push better links anyway?
Most apps being which ones?
Which browser comes with auo-redirect?... (without being a hacker and needing add stuff)
Actually needs people to know about them in the first place... which url is self-education for.
So if it's not standard I think anyway responsibility is with you also.
For future-proofing I can see that a bit more if it was that important or very un-disposable data (like important and not everywhere).
At worse the video ID is still there so you're not losing your precious link-
and yes if invidious dies, some broken links if really it's that bad, but I don't rate very high on my ladder of priority something usually lost / forgotten in a week or so abundant to find again
(search title / using video id)
My highest priority (or one of the highest) is to not push youtube links (work around or not)
And to not need to catch people out in the case they don't have this down. You know people not like you and me talking about it... using various devices... how many users does fedilab have... you're linking to twitter... all kind of 'dumbed down' average people floods my mind and you're talking about Fedilab... just too obscure or niche / low population for even the many here..
1st for me is to make as safe and idiot-proof as possible AND SHOWING SUPPORT for invidious etc.
And I think you are not doing that, knowingly.
And could adjust priority a bit for your minor points, but visually in your links and technically you have *those* URLs near your name and message and not *these* other alternatives that people will keep seeing and ask themselves why? .... and finally catch on (this is a human thing not just Technical Redirects)
Your support for invidious is not shown here in your list of messages / posts... it's quite a clear choice at least on the visual front and learning cycle that I'm battling you on now.
@freeschool
I have no intention of actively supporting invidious.
If someone knows about it, he can use it.
