Is there no place to copy the link of a link post?

I just came across a YouTube video that I wanted to watch on a post but when I clicked on it it opened in the native YouTube app instead of Vanced.

    In the meantime, LinkSheet is a great app to control where links take you.

      I’ll consider that.

      On GitHub only, if anybody comes looking

    First: why do you have both YouTube apps installed?

    Second: you can set it up so that all YouTube links will open in the Vanced app instead. In the application settings in android under supported links

      1. Because you can’t uninstall stock YouTube.
      2. I will look into this
      3. But neither of these answer the question

      Edit: I already have open supported links turned on. It’s never worked.

        Regarding 3. Yes, sorry, I have no answer for that Regarding 1. Yes you can. Using ABD on a PC and USB Debugging you can simply run:

        adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.youtube

          I tried to give this a go but it’s way beyond my skill level.

            It isn’t believe me.

            Step by Step:

            1. Go into your Android Settings
            2. Go into “System” or “Info” or “About”
            3. You will find a piece of Info called “Build Number” or “Build”
            4. Tap that Text 7 times. After 4 Times you will see a small piece of text in the bottom half saying “in 4 steps you are developer”
            5. After the 7th tap, you will have enabled developer mode; Do not panic, this hasn’t done anything to your device yet but will simply enable you to do more with your device if you chose so.
            6. Go into your Android Settings again
            7. System
            8. Developer Settings 9 Scroll down and enable “USB Debugging”
            9. Download the Android Debugging Bridge for Windows https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools
            10. Connect your Phone with a good (ideally the original one) USB cable to your PC.
            11. Open the command line (Windows+R -> cmd -> Enter)
            12. type in adb devices
            13. On your phone -> Accept connections from this PC
            14. Now type in adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.youtube
            15. You’re done - Youtube is now uninstalled.

            You can do Step 15 for all other bloatware aswell. There is a handy dandy application on https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater that will let you use a nice GUI to do that. Debloats your phone quite effectively.

            After you’re done with all this, simply go back into your developer options and disable USB Debugging. That’s it.
