A similar issue happens with Google searches as well but there is an easy workaround for that. Is there a workaround for this as well (without recompiling)?

It works for me using YouTube Vanced typing in search -yt epub pdf linux converter. Things that might prevent the app from working:

  • Is the app installed?
  • If you type apps -st YouTube to go to app settings and check:
    • Is YouTube app enabled?
    • Set as default could be cleared if there's another app set for yt search.

Alternatively, create an alias to y to search that might fix the problem.

alias -add y search -u https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%
