Sorry I couldn't find the button. I thought the button was hidden until i upload something, and ive uploaded 3 things now and still nothing.
And i see we can embed youtube links. Can we embed invidious links? It's a FOSS frontend for youtube, the opengameart of youtube sorta. Like yewtu be or invidious io
I can answer the first one.
1: Get to your user page (whether it's by clicking on your username in this forum or by clicking on 'Hello, LowSociety' in the top right of your window.)
2: Look just above the art you've submitted, and you'll see words that say (starting from left to right,) View, Collections, Comments, Edit, Followers, Friends, My Downloads(if you have those enabled), OpenID Identities, Points, and Favorites. Click on Edit.
3: This will allow you to edit all your user information, such as your username, email, password, signature, and profile picture. This should take you to a page where you see those things in that order, from top to bottom. In the picture section, which is just beneath the signature section, you should see Choose File.
4: You can either drag and drop whatever image you want onto Choose File, or click on it to choose a file from your computer.
5: Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, and click save.
That's all there is to it!

If you want Invidious embeds, my recommendation is to use standard Youtube iframe embeds along with a browser plugin like "Privacy Redirect". Unless whoever runs this site wants to let arbitrary iframe embeds be possible, this is probably the best way to acheive the behavior you want (at least for yourself), and bonus, all of the other posts with youtube embeds will now also display an Invidious embed too (just for you).
Invidious is a distributed service, so if you did post a link or embed to one specific server, there is a chance that the embed will just be an error or a bad gateway. yewtu.be doesn't always work, and invidious.io isn't an active instance.
If a youtube embed doesn't work, the average person would probably just troubleshoot it with YouTube, but if an Invidious embed doesn't work, the average person would probably just give up trying to watch the video before they figured out what was wrong, and potentially even, leave a comment below your post complaining about it. This is why it is probably just better to use YouTube embeds. Users who don't like YouTube are already probably using something like Privacy Redirect, and users who don't care will just get the vanilla experience without having any extra issues, and if they do have issues, they are YouTube's responsibility.
