This hyperlink

Does not work.

That's what I was pointing out and providing an amended link.

[-] iAmTheTot@kbin.social 10 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

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.

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Op does have the power to post the exact same link that this person did.

[-] catloaf@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago

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.

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.
