If anyone uses sync, there's a setting to hide the PipedLinkBot posts
Settings shortcut: Account settings > Hide PipedLinkBot
Amazing, imagine writing a bot so annoying that app devs put a specific button in their settings to ignore it. Thanks for the tip!
Alternatively, you can think of it as something so popular and important as to deserve a setting, eg. NSFW filter
I don't even understand why the bot exists? If you have newpipe or other yt apps installed, it automatically sends you there when clicking YouTube links. You can do the same within Firefox on PC.
