@Synnr @JohnnyEnzyme what do you mean by right?
You're using Google, that's about as wrong as it gets in the privacy space.
But OK, let's say your threat model allows for use of Google in specific circumstances. You should set up your account in an isolated browser container in hardened Firefox, and only use it for YouTube. No other browsing in that container. Use a VPN maybe?
Then idk sip some more koolaid and pat yourself on the back.
User asked why they never see &si= on their links on Android. @Synnr said they may be copying the link from the browser, which suggests they don't even have the YouTube app installed, as it 'never happens to them.'
@Synnr ah I see I'm being stupid.
Have a good day all involved :welp:
