#+title: Peertubeify
PeerTubeify is a browser extension to help discovering which YouTube videos are
also available on [[https://joinpeertube.org/][PeerTube]], by displaying a link and a thumbnail below the video
title, when watching a video on YouTube.
If you choose to automatically redirect from YouTube to PeerTube, it uses
[[https://invidio.us/][Invidious]] to get the video information without making any requests to YouTube
from your browser, for added privacy.
It also allows you to choose a preferred PeerTube instance; when you watch a
video on another instance, a link to the same video in your preferred instance
is displayed.
PeerTube is a federated video streaming platform.
PeerTubeify is not affiliated with PeerTube.
Get it on [[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/peertubeify][Firefox]] or [[https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/peertubeify/gegmikcnabpilimgelhabaledkcikdab][Chrome/Chromium]].
* How does it work?
Most videos have the same title on YouTube and PeerTube. Hence — for now? —
PeerTubeify uses the =/search/videos= endpoint of the PeerTube API to check if a
video with the same title exists.
