Hi all,
I've made some adjustments to the site to handle YouTube videos better. The problem with the "embed" code (including iframe) that YouTube generates when you click their "share" button is that they hardcode the width and height of the playback frame, which does not work on all screens - mostly mobile gets really wonky.
So, now all embed shared iframes are converted to a nicer format. Also, just YouTube links (such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ci0SSrAXOI) can be posted here and they will be converted automatically to have the player shown. Should make it easier for everyone to share relevant videos here.
Enjoy my only attempt at a YouTube video now:
