So I created an open-source Lemmy bot to reply to posts/comments with YouTube links with converted Piped links to preserve your privacy.
Piped is an open-source alternative privacy-friendly frontend to YouTube. You can watch the same content from YouTube without connecting to Google’s servers.

You can find Piped’s source code at: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped
PS: I’m the author of Piped :P
And I would like to add that one can download “Yattee” (Privacy oriented video player for iOS, tvOS and macOS), and add any instance from this list by adding its URL in Parameters > Instances > Personalized instance. It’s really an awesome client.
You have a similar project for Android called Libretube :) Here’s a list of projects that use Piped’s API: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped#made-with-piped
