Invidious (unless you self-host) is essentially a proxy for YouTube. Looking at its description, Yotter is the same.

(I use Invidious mainly because it doesn't have the insane JS bloat of the official site.)

> Invidious And it skips ads, and if you are playing music on your mobile devices it allows you to turn off the screen and still play music. Invidious and Youtube are both a very good side by side comparison on what a video sharing site ought to be if it s build for user, vs build to extract information from user.

That makes sense for those but they should add the same warning for Fritter and the reddit apps. Consistency is important with these things otherwise they end up making some things look worse than others when they are the same.
