Right now, youtube has its own preference option, for method of opening. Could we expand this to allow users to input domains and select an opening method for them?

Generally, I want to open videos in app and articles in browser. I don’t know if there’s a better way to achieve this than giving users an option per domain, with custom domain input, but I’m open to other methods.

      If you haven’t figured it out, the way I was able to do it with reVanced app, was to set ReVanced as the default in the phone’s app settings.

      So in Apps -> New pipe -> Set as default: Open supported links = Enable; Supported web addresses: Enable all.

      Also, in Connect settings -> Open YouTube links in app: Enable.
