To be fair, I don't like it when links are shared this way. Each person has a different preferred Invidious instance, and chances are they already have a redirecter set up if they need it. Not to mention that in 99% of cases, the public instance would be broken.

Newpipe breaks too often and doesn't have shorts, easier to rawdog YT with adblocker.
Avoiding shorts is a feature IMO
