I found this advertisement placard in a vinyl album, and decided to play the card.

Why would you make the main link to less accessible YouTube instead of more-accessible Wikipedia?

I made a video about how I learned about the guy. I thought the card record was neat.

Please prioritize links to accessible content

It's their video, they're sharing their work. If you understand this and still think their link doesn't belong here? Get lost.

I'm not saying it doesn't belong. I'm saying Lemmy has a link field and that should be the accessible content.

If you want to add something supplementary like a video, put it in the body. Not the link field.

The topic of this thread is his video. This thread is about that video. Get lost.

I'll follow the rules the best I can.
