Sharing video links

Post by Fortyeightvows »

When a person shares video links how can it be decided if the lost will just show the link or will show that whole window and all that

When posting, instead of using the hyperlink, use the tv button (last icon on the right) or simply type
'[ media ] [ / media ]' (without the spaces).

Thanks- so that makes it show just the link instead of the whole screen shot?

IDK, but I think, as long as it is a normal youtube link, it will be shown as window automatically. I don't know any measure to avoid this.
I saw youtu.be links only as links. Or vimeo, or soundcloud. But not youtube.
