What it does

The YouTube content type recognizes youtu.be links, Shorts, live streams, embeds, YouTube Music and @handles, keeps the start time and playlist, drops tracking parameters and shows the title and thumbnail before you print.

When this server has a YouTube Data API key, you can also name your channel and pick one of its latest uploads.
