For the times it is down, the Freetube UI offers an easy way to “open in <video player of choice>” or “open embedded player”, both of which are much better than dealing with the default youtube UI.

Apparently its called “Innovis”. I tried to find a few articles but they all read like press releases or AI slop.

There is a blurb on Wikipedia fortunately:

Try to get a really early start so you aren’t spending the last few hours driving in darkness. If you haven’t listened to the “Shit town” podcast, it got me through a long drive once. This was on a 2012 car with no smartphone features besides basic bluetooth, but there was a pairing procedure that got audio to at least play (it was really wonky to setup, I had to look it up).

Edit: Big Caveat to my advice on the starting early, be careful if your trip ends inside a huge metro area on a weekday, as bad timing can land you straight into some horrendous rush-hour traffic.

Yeah, I’ve been fortunate enough to be offered those multiple times as well. I froze my credit with the big three agencies after the third or fourth breach. Recently learned there’s apparently a fourth agency now? Cool. And there’s hundreds of data broker sites…
