### Browser Extension
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.
### Browser Extensions
The following extensions open YouTube links directly in FreeTube:

> [!IMPORTANT]
> You must enable the option within the advanced settings of the extension for it to work.
- [LibRedirect](https://libredirect.github.io/)
- [RedirectTube](https://github.com/MStankiewiczOfficial/RedirectTube)

LibRedirect automatically redirect YouTube links to FreeTube.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> To ensure proper functionality, select FreeTube as Frontend in the Services settings of the extension.

RedirectTube, 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.
