I followed the link of a video here on Lemmy just a few minutes ago and it opened in the browser.

Nothing shocking up to this point.

Then I get a prompt from the video saying "Ready to buy products advertised in the video? Log into the official app in order to."

Direct purchase through the YT app is a novelty for me.

Newpipe all the way.

    I recommend Tubular. Newpipe with Sponsorblock. Didn't realise how much of a game changer that would be until I tried it.

    Just need to find a way to stop Eternity from opening Youtube links in the browser. Sure you can share it with the app but it would be a lot more convenient.

    If you want all youtube links you click on on your phone to open in tubular you can go to your phones settings>apps>tubular>set as default and make open supported links on and under the supported web addresses you can select all the web addresses you want to be opened in tubular.
