    Why not post a link to one of those platforms?

    Kindof makes me think, there should be a canonical YouTube link that is not youtube.com, that could be use to refer to yt videos without the risk of accidentally clicking it and ending up in yt.

      Paradoxically, I kinda prefer YouTube links because then I can configure my client to use whichever proxy/frontend I wanna use

        Exactly! It is so much more user friendly to post the original and let individuals set their browser/device to open it wherever is preferred.

          Oh absolutely!

          My point is that it’s easy for anyone to click the link and be taken to YouTube by accident.

          But yeah. Given that YouTube is the source, I guess it makes sense to use the actual yt link.

      Becuase it is off-topic and I don’t know exactly what platform readers are using
