Does not work.
That's what I was pointing out and providing an amended link.
Ah, I misunderstood and see what you're referring to now. It looks like the way YouTube auto-truncates URLs caused the link to get mashed into the next line of text on the preview Lemmy fetched. As others mention, that's more of a Lemmy bug than anything.
That is the description of the YouTube video. Unless OP is also the person that uploaded the YT video, OP doesn't have control of that.
Op does have the power to post the exact same link that this person did.
That's not the fault of OP, that's Lemmy mangling the preview.
I wasn't trying to assign blame...
Just noticed it didn't work when I tried it, so I added the working one for others to follow if they wish.
But the crowd mentally needs something to be pissed about; so go ahead, pile on some more downvotes. Glad I could provide some release.
