> You’re trying to post a YouTube video, but you get a popup saying “You can’t embed media items in a post.” Here’s how to avoid that. There are a couple of minor variations. I haven’t written my post yet Write your post normally but do not include the YouTube link(s). When you are satisfied with the post, hide the preview window (see the \<\< button in the lower-right). Then, insert the links in the desired locations. Note that the links should each appear on a line by themselves. Then post. …

The key thing is you’re not posting your vid here. You need to post it to YouTube and then you post a link to your vid on YouTube here.

But … a Discourse bug makes YouTube link posting slightly awkward. It’s trivial once you’ve done it twice. Except for technophobes which you’re self-evidently not.
