Watch on LBRY - Instantly Redirect to LBRY Network

"Watch on LBRY" is a Chrome extension designed for seamless viewing experience. It detects a video on YouTube and if available, instantly redirects the user to view it on the LBRY network.

It will generate public/private key that will allow to assign points based on your contribution (every channel/video you find count as one point).

Our API do not collect any informations like IP and everyone can purge their data using button on extension popup.

User reviews

It's great when it works, though most of the time sadly it doesn't work. Every now and then I go to videos that I know for a fact are on Odysee just to check if the extension redirects me, half of the time it doesn't work. Sometimes I can fix it with refreshing, other times I need to reinstall the extension.

Is the subscription convertion feature still working? Struglling to get the csv file that I got from Google working: Go to https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout Deselect everything except YouTube and YouTube Music and within that only select subscriptions Go through the process and create the export Once it's exported, open the archive and find YouTube and YouTube Music/subscriptions/subscriptions.json and upload it to the extension
