Youtube is apparently rolling out a new change where when you share a video link it will share you profile with whoever clicks it.

Video with info on it here(CW: Reactionary/fash stuff on screen at times): https://youtu.be/oFx46sqo8O0

Everyone should be aware of this especially when sharing to something like hexbear. It can break your anonymity without you even realizing.

CW to that video for all the hitlerite bullshit

Okay I tested it and yes, lemmy is already scrubbing these. See, I'm trying to insert an &si=eaetah right now and it doesn't write it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKu9eEZe88Q

Kinda surprised no one thought to even test this out.
