Privacy Redirect
Since you often find links to YouTube videos here and everywhere else on the net, keep in mind that you do not have to watch them on YouTube. Fortunately there is a privacy frontend for this which is called Invidious.
No ads, no tracking, ...
The same thing exists for Twitter and is called nitter.
To make your life easier just install an extension for your browser to automatically forward links to these privacy focused alternatives. In case of Firefox one option would be Privacy Redirect by Simon Brazell.
For this plugin make sure to select a working Invidious instance in the settings. A list with their respective status can be found here.
