This is a plugin I found recently and really enjoy. It gives you the opportunity to redirect several webpages to alternatives. For example Youtube to FreeTube or Piped. If I search for youtube in Firefox, FreeTube automatically opens and shows me my feed. I like it, I use it, I can recommend it.

"Access your data for all websites" is important because otherwise it doesn't know what domain you're on in the first place.

Access browser tabs
Access browser activity during navigation

are enough to do that.

Shouldn’t it just require access to i.e. YouTube.com and not a blanket everything? This is what other extensions do.
