Please include both Moderate and Restricted options for YouTube

YouTube has more than one "restricted" mode. The highest restriction is called Restricted, but there is also a lower option called Moderate. It would be nice to have both of those options, instead of just Restricted.

    Have you tried using rewrites for that?

      Calvin Hobbes, I have not. It may indeed be possible.

      I just wanted to make the suggestion, though. Rather than just a toggle for Restricted mode, it'd be nice to make choosing between Moderate and Restricted simpler with a select tag or radio buttons.

    1. check out Youtube's up-to-date docs : https://support.google.com/a/answer/6214622?hl=en#zippy=%2Coption-dns
    2. for all the host entries create a "rewrite" entry in NextDNS
    3. Make sure that the "Restricted mode" NextDNS option is disabled (to avoid conflict with the rewrites)

    And the resulting behavior:
