    What kind of view are you using? I can see full YouTube links under the post thumbnail warning me where it’s gonna take me.

    You can also silence the media volume on your phone if you’re in bed and not wanting to break the silence. I don’t think special markdown for a single domain is worth chasing, but I might be missing something.

      I can see the link, yes. But when you’re mindlessly clicking articles, it’s easy to miss.

      Yea, I can put the volume down. But I have to remember to do that just for this. And have to remember to put it back.

      I’m going off a feature that the Bacon reddit app had. YouTube links were red and stood out. Was super convenient. And that’s what this request is about: convenience.

      If we stopped requesting things because there are workarounds, then we wouldn’t have neat features 😊

      I actually would also like red YouTube links. I’m using Compact view, and YouTube links are not easily distinguishable. It’s not a massive deal of course, but being able to quickly parse video links would be nice. It’s a similar slick kind of feature as highlighting sticky threads.
