Oh thanks for sharing but it seems I would still need to get kagi if I wanted to do !cobalt and I just wanted it to be something which can be used by just about anybody. (Imagine seeing someone downloading something on shitty website and being like oh let me help you and boom)
I think kagi's nice but this is some real pain which I feel like could be solved via nilch with not much pain as well.
Perhaps you can add the cobalt bang to kagi's global list so that people like us who don't use Kagi can use it as well too since the bangs are free for everyone.
I'm not sure if !cobalt would meet Kagi's guidelines for public bangs.
Eventually, zBang will execute bangs locally before falling back to a Kagi network call. It's open source: https://github.com/Leftium/zbang
I just remembered my other project can support cobalt. Just enter the youtube URL and press ENTER (or click the buttons): https://mm.leftium.com?p=C4S2BsFMAIF5oEQGED2AjAhuY0AikBbFBAK...
- The link above embeds the cobalt "launch plan" (config) in the URL, but it could also be added as one of the built-in plans like https://mm.leftium.com/svelte.
- Also open source (and very simple to deploy): https://github.com/Leftium/multi-launch

But what's the difference between these two?:
1. Go to https://nilch.org and search for `!cobalt YOUTUBE URL`
2. Go to https://cobalt.meowing.de and search for the YOUTUBE URL
I think #2 is actually simpler for that person you are trying to help.
