Instead of https://www.youtube.com/shorts/<xxx>, do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v<xxx>
There is an equals sign (=) between v and <xxx>, but for some reason lemmy keeps removing it
You can also use https://www.youtube.com/v/<xxx>. It’s the old video link structure, but it still works just fine. It’s easier to change it too, since a lot of devices can select text by the word.

I usually change it to
https://youtu.be/<xxx>which works just the same, but is shorter and easier to editThis is what I do =)

\=Nope, that doesn’t work
I tried it and then only the \ is displayed
