Sounds good, does SocialBlade have a video page that Invidious should point to? All I see is a listing for videos as well as other information about the author.

social blade just have infos about channels, youtube has info about each video some time ago, I think 2010~2012, but was removed gradually, and totally with the new youtube design

Looks like YouTube still provides them. Using this answer on SO, you can make a POST request to https://www.youtube.com/insight_ajax?action_get_statistics_and_data=1&v=AAAAAAAAAAA with body session_token=SESSIONTOKEN, which is very similar to how Invidious pulls comments, see here.

Example output: https://pastebin.com/ZUtKXqrZ

I'd be interested in providing this on the left side, similar to Genre, Views, etc.

Would it make more sense to link on the /channel page since SocialBlade doesn't provide video info?

but I was seeing

In order to best scale our tracking to meet the needs of millions that use Social Blade, we pull data from YouTube's public API. This means that we're getting the same information you see on public YouTube channel pages, we just work to examine that data across multiple days and aggregate it into a display format that is useful to you.

https://socialblade.com/youtube/help

these are the same public info from YouTube API, Social Blade just make information gathering, and process data.

I had suggested this because the information on the Invidious channel page are very poor in my view.
