It's possible to toggle all redirects on and off. The extension will default to using random instances if none are selected. If these instances are not working, you can try and set a custom instance from the list below.

I used a redirecter like this but then needed another one for an unsupported service, and then another one... I just switched to a generic link redirecter and write my own rules, it's easier that way. It's missing the embedded YouTube stuff but it's not a big problem for me.
