Luvcie Evoe (ID: 000000099144a77c) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/14/2023 Very useful, thank you. Is there a way to change the keybind? Ctrl+Shift+Y is a bit clamplicated... thank you!

Diego Vázquez (ID: 0000002bd5db89c1) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/20/2023 Hi, nice extension, it would be even better if you add the option to open the Invidious as a new tab instead of replacing youtube, so we can use Youtube to browse our feed and Invidious to view the videos.
