Can we get, please, a way to open YouTube links in NewPipe?

On a post with a YouTube link we can open in the default browser, or copy the link, then open NewPipe, search for the pasted link and then see the video.

Can we get a 'share the link' instead of the 'copy link' .

In any case, thank you for the great app, and thank you for all the effort and care you've put into this.

So my Android phone has new pipe set as the default to hand all YT links in the settings, however the baked in yt app always takes over and I can't seem to stop this... I don't think it can be forced easily.

RIF was able to do this without a fuss. I don't see why it'd be any harder for a lemmy app.

Waiting for a LIF... RIP RIF my sweet prince

Jerboa does come close though... Can't complain.

What if you remove the YouTube app

Some manufacturers won't let you

Even if you can't uninstall it you can usually "disable" it with the same effect in settings somewhere (that's what I did on my phone, I'm using revanced now)
