Is there a nostr bot already that parses YouTube links and replaces them with a direct link to an Invidious instance, like this?

It should be trivial to implement. Just a bot that replies to all YouTube links and does a string-replace using the YouTube ID and replacing YouTube with one of the live instances.

This should work and allows native embedding in all clients, no?

That would be super handy.

Please

Libredirect seems more practical https://libredirect.github.io/

Yes, libredirect bot that does everything the extension does just as kind1 notes.

Aight, it'd be useful if it replied with a bunch of different instances as some of them could be down or have too much latency (my particular issue here down south). And piped instances too.

Just FYI, you can set a custom instance in the noStrudel privacy settings, which does said replacement client-side.

Nostrudel feature 🤙, but autoplay Is not good

Lol this would be a useful bot

Yes please.

Love me some Invidious!!
