Does it support playlists or at least a list of videos in the video link?

Yeah, I use MPV as a external player and it's great because you can highly customize the way you watch videos. I like equalize the sound and through a MPV script I save the video from cache with a keystroke if I liked it. Sadly watching with subtitles stopped working some weeks ago.

I don't see the reasoning "hackers with AI" is a vague, it's already happening. Scammers use deepfakes to steal $25.6 million from a multinational firm The software to do this is already available in github for anyone to use it. There's a billion market around phone scams, it's just a matter of time of widespread adoption of this technology by scammers. Scammers are swiping billions from Americans every year That's why I talked about being well informed and seeing the dangers. May be I'm paranoid but it doesn't mean its not happening.

Well, it seems that my bad english made it seem that I am suffering of anxiety or something. I just don't like the abussive behavior of corporations and the government that exposes us unnecessarly to the risks of being hacked or scammed.

No daily anxiety at all, just being aware of the dangers. When I drive and see a red light I just stop, there is no anxiety involved, I'm just aware of the dangers of crossing. If you are not aware of the dangers of the excessive digital exposure and surveillance you should subscribe to this community and read what's going on in China and in an increasing number of western countries in relation to this.
During the past few years I was avoiding the increasing number of products or services that required biometric verification, specially face recognition (FR). But the things are getting harder are harder in my country: - The largest e-commerce platform in latin america and the most used in my country requires FR to use it. It was possible to use cash if you buy from its website but since a couple of weeks it's requesting me to identify using it's app. - The telecoms demands FR from now on if you want a new SIM card in case you lost your phone or it's been stolen. - The bank is now pressing me to use their app with FR as a 2fa when using homebanking from its website, something that wasn't necessary up to some weeks ago. - The government is in the same direction as it's moving to digitalizing many burocratic procedures and also requires FR. and the list is increasing quickly. I've never used any private social networks and I've degoogled many years ago, the only non free software that I use is Whatsapp because in some countries in latin america is almost imposible not to use it, you need it even to call to the car towing service. Anybody that is well informed knows the dangers of allowing such an amount of private information now tied to our face be available for hackers now equiped with AI, but frankly it seems a lost cause to fight against something that 99.9% of people dont worry about and give consent to do so to corporations (that sell all your data to whoever wants it) and governments (who use it as a tool of control). I don't know, may be I'm also worring to much and it's not that serious, after all if tens of millions of people do the same the chances of being targeted by hackers is not different of being robbed in the street (at least in latin america) and with the obiquitous surveillance cameras plus the almost unavoidable need of a phone, the government probably know exactly where you are and how you look, so the information may be already available. Perhaps it's time to give up and adapt to the world we now live in.

What I don't get is why they don't allow users to decide if they want to connect to Mozilla or not with an option in the settings. Libre means being free (to choose in this case), not being forced.

Debian is the first choice if you look for stability and the last choice if you are looking for the latest versions of the software.

Connecting to a non free site (anti feature) doesn't mean having proprietary or non free dependencies (being non FOSS), which is what you stated, but OK, you don't trust proton proprietary services. I assume you don't see youtube videos for the same reason, any FOSS privacy app or frontend will have that anti feature too.

That doesn't mean it is not FOSS, there are many anti features not related to not being FOSS. Newpipe for example is FOSS but has anti features just because it connects to YouTube which is non free.

do you see how easily you are manipulated with misinformation? That's why people don't stop talking stupid things about bitcoin. She doesn't say that in any moment. She says higher highs and higher lows, which is true and doesn't mean allways increasing.

One of the biggest misconceptions about bitcoin is that it's a neoliberal/libertarian thing. Thinking this way only shows lack of understanding. A famous short video from the most respected bitcoin educator will make understand better. https://youtu.be/ywO0r_Fz0lc
And about the environmental concerns Lyn Alden has a post that deals with all the misinformation. If you are really interested take the time to read it, it's exhaustive. https://www.lynalden.com/bitcoin-energy/

Honestly I was expecting far more downvotes. I posted the video with people like you in mind, who still can think critically without the burden of misinformation and ideology.
A cool software for degooglers that makes a little noise every time your computer sends a packet to a tracker or Google service. EDIT: [There is also a Firefox add-on](https://github.com/rugk/googerteller) for web browsing.
