Blåhaj Lemmy - Choose Your Interface

I sometimes share youtube shorts with my wife, and I always edit the url so it plays in the default video mode instead of the shorts interface
Asking for a friend, how do you do this?
Instead of https://www.youtube.com/shorts/<xxx>, do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v<xxx>
I usually change it to https://youtu.be/<xxx> which works just the same, but is shorter and easier to edit
This is what I do =)
You have to escape the = sign, like so: \=
Nope, that doesn’t work
I tried it and then only the \ is displayed

It doesn’t like =<

I wonder if that’s a bug or not. Either way if you remove the < it should work

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v<xxx>
You can also use https://www.youtube.com/v/<xxx>. It’s the old video link structure, but it still works just fine.
