by Firefox user 14437127, 6 years agoHi, I love this addon you have made but I noticed that the official Nitter instance has been down for a few days, while it will apparently go back up tomorrow, I cannot change the instance to a different one without getting a 400 Bad Request error when visiting a new instance. I have tried them all to no avail. Also whenever I change the bibliogram instance I get a 404 Error when visiting an instagram page and when I change invidio.us instances, it does work however it cant play embedded videos properly. Running Firefox 68.4.1esr on Android 9 with Fdroid's Fennec Fox. I would suggest testing the extension with the most popular alternative instances for each of these websites, In case the official ever goes offline like Nitter's. Other than that, this is a fantastic extension, found out what bibiliogram is from this and I see it having a bright future.

posted 6 years agoHello! I just tried the following alternative instances with success on the official desktop FF (v72.0.2). Please note the instance change feature is pretty basic with no validation so if a mistake is made it just won't work, so please make sure you have entered them exactly as is shown here:
- https://nitter.snopyta.org
- https://invidious.snopyta.org
- https://bibliogram.snopyta.org
Note there is no trailing forward slash and the protocol is also included. Let me know if you are still experiencing a problem after confirming this and I'll look into it further.
** EDIT ** Basic instance input validation is now included in v1.1.6 which should address this problem.
** EDIT 2 ** v1.1.7 now displays a list of possible instances as you type.

Ne fontionne pas pour les redirections vers Invidious lorsque le lien "Youtube" est" "youtube-nocookies" ex :
https://www.youtube-nocookie.com https://www.youtube.com https://s.ytimg.com;; frame-src 'self' https://www.youtube-nocookie.com https://www.youtube.com;
Hi,,
Redirection to Invidious doesn't work with "youtube-nocookies" links ex :
https://www.youtube-nocookie.com https://www.youtube.com https://s.ytimg.com;; frame-src 'self' https://www.youtube-nocookie.com https://www.youtube.com;

- Rated 2 out of 5by Douginamug, 3 years agoA good add-on, but no longer maintained. Youtube redirects don't respect browser autoplay settings, and play on load - annoying!
This add-on was forked and continues to be maintained as LibRedirect: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ - Rated 5 out of 5by priyanshurai, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by confusing-wrinkle, 3 years agoGreat extension that makes it super easy to manage twitter, reddit and youtube redirections!
Little known features that some may not be aware of - you can put _any_ URL in the addon settings for each of the sites, you are not restricted to the specific front-ends listed here. Ex - You can use any piped instance instead of invidious for youtube. Using firefox nightly, you can also use this on mobile! - Rated 4 out of 5by plex, 3 years agoPas mal du tout :)
Mais, étant donné que toutes les instances ne sont plus en ligne, et que d'autres s'adonnent à des redirections pour le moins bizarre, on souhaiterait, si cela était possible, deux petits boutons:
- un pour pouvoir signaler une instance qui s'adonne à ce genre de redirections bizarres vers des sites de e-commerce ou autres,
- un pour pouvoir changer d'instance; parce que lorsque l'on est pris dans le jeu des redirections, ce sont des manœuvres pas poss pour parvenir à y échapper et c'est pénible.
Sinon super idée, merci :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Adam, 4 years ago
