FreeTube is supported by the [Privacy Redirect](https://github.com/SimonBrazell/privacy-redirect) and [LibRedirect](https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect) extensions, which will allow you to open YouTube links into FreeTube. You must enable the option within the advanced settings of the extension for it to work.
You can use the following extensions to open YouTube links directly in FreeTube:

[RedirectTube](https://github.com/MStankiewiczOfficial/RedirectTube), on the other hand, doesn’t automatically open YouTube links in FreeTube. Instead, it adds buttons to the toolbar and context menu, which you can click to open videos in FreeTube manually.

If you have issues with the extension working with FreeTube, please create an issue in the [FreeTube Repository](https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube) instead of the extension repository. Most if not all problems is a problem with FreeTube itself and not a problem with the extension.
