Is there any chance that...

Could we please bring back the EMBED feature for this forum? It would be such a game-changer to be able to embed full YouTube videos directly into our posts rather than just posting links. 🙂 I realize that allowing video embeds might clutter up the feed and make scrolling a bit more hectic, but I truly believe you could manage that through moderation, warnings, and banning users who overdo it. In my opinion, removing this functionality altogether was a mistake; it really takes away from the richness of our discussions. 🙂

This is exactly what’s gonna be the death of this damn server...🤣

What was it we were talking about again? 😬

Personally, I think it would be pretty sweet, but I just don't see it working. The server would probably just buckle under the pressure... 🙂

It shouldn't really impact the server performance much—since the video is hosted elsewhere, it's mostly just hitting the user's bandwidth and (usually) YouTube's servers. That said, I don't think it's a great move; we've already got way too many unnecessary YouTube links cluttering things up as it is.

So, what’s even the difference between that and a regular link? Honestly, there isn't one. 😁

If I’m remembering right, I think I saw that on the Film PDF lately 🤷

Here it is. Something like this?

A regular link takes up way less space—plus, you don't have to give your finger a workout just scrolling through the page.
