If you haven’t already, try out the LibRedirect extension for your browser. It takes a small amount of configuring, but it is able to redirect you to privacy oriented front ends for most social media platforms including youtube. Once set up, it can automatically take you to an invidious instance whenever you click a youtube link.

Also, you can go to inv.nadeko.net (which is my go-to) from your browser and search all of youtube through it. Same thing as using LibRedirect, it’s just the manual version.

If you’re on android you can use the NewPipe app. Similar idea as Invidious, it’s just a self contained app and not a website.
