Lemmy bot to automatically reply to YouTube links with Piped ones
cross-posted from: https://feddit.rocks/post/3214
So I created an open-source Lemmy bot to reply to posts/comments with YouTube links with converted Piped links to preserve your privacy.
Piped is an open-source alternative privacy-friendly frontend to YouTube. You can watch the same content from YouTube without connecting to Google's servers.

Do the content creators miss out on views bc of this?
Unfortunately, yes since for views to be counted, we have to make some tracking requests to YouTube.
