I always look up "rickroll no ads" because of this. Also it's a different YouTube url so those nerds who recognize the rickroll url won't recognize my link

I just see Rick Astley's face with a play button. The main issue is that modern browsers disallow playing sound without user interaction.

"XcQ, link stays blue" doesn't make me a nerd. :'(

I mean, I am, but I don't think I'm allowed to be on lemmy if I'm not, so I don't think it's relevant.

I love that automatic inline link previewing kills that tactic with disgusting ease lmao 🖕😘
