Why is there no way to link to Youtube videos? All links appear to be automatically converted to embedded videos, which is annoying when you want to specify a time offset.

Also, it's impossible to edit a post immediately after you post it for some reason.

I trust exceptions about as far as I can throw them.

No you need to create a link with the toolbar at the top of the text editor

yea that's the one. Just highlight some text, click the button and put in the URL. Click on mine and you'll jump to the video spot like you want

Oh you have to highlight some text before clicking the button. Talk about unintuitive.
