What about not posting YouTube links to a privacy subreddit?

I think it might be better to post youtube links actually instead of a frontend. People in here tend to have redirects set up already to their preferred frontend, and posting a link to some broken invidious instance for example would break that flow.

I guess not everyone will share the opinion, but sending canonical links will let everyone choose where to watch. For example, on my phone I have youtube links open with grayjay, but that only works if it's a real yt link.
