Currently, clicking a link in the description of a video redirects you to a hooktube search of the "real" URL.

You can click the icon next to the link to go to the website without a redirector, or to stay on invidious when opening a new video.

I agree that this should be swapped at one point or another.

+1. Should only /redirect URLs be swapped?

Probably not - if you're watching a video on invidious, why would you ever want to watch the next one on YouTube?

That's fair enough, and with #121 it'll always be possible for a user to view the YouTube version if they choose to, so this'll be added soon.

How about having removing the link icon and having the linked URL point to the actual URL that then opens in a new tab when clicked on?
