A friend suggested that I PR it here. I've had this project running for a while; it's a way to avoid loading the YouTube embed along with all the tracking and ads that come with it—primarily on Discord but also potentially on other apps. It's about as privacy-respecting as it can be while running on Cloudflare's servers, but I think it still fits the applications doc.

Let me know if you'd rather not have the links populated like that for consistency.

Is this project using invidious in any way?

Yes, that is correct. All the data is received from an Invidious instance and the video direct URLs are also obtained through its API. The project is basically an API wrapper. I should have clarified, apologies.

From what I'm seeing it's not really an "extension" so why add it under extension?

It's not really an application (like a client), userscript or browser extension either. I guess it could be categorized as a utility but the only one currently present is an updater for Invidious itself, so a bit of a different scope.

In my opinion, it best fits in the "Extensions that integrate Invidious into other Apps" category, in a sense that it integrates content from Invidious into Discord, without ever leaving Discord. So that's why I proposed putting it there.
