@scottalanmiller any chance this could be related to the last letter being cut off from each post?

Okay yes, that's it. What we just learned from this is that the forum isn't cutting off the last letter of NEW posts, but of ALL posts. We just hadn't noticed yet. Once I added an extra character, the video works.
So the issue is really figuring out that last letter thing as that has broken, I am getting thousands of links and embeds.

Yup NBB has its own way to grow. But why I suggested this feature as core is because as we all know, NBB is undergoing heavy changes with each updates, right? So chances of plugins breaking are a lot. So if all features like SMTP, embedly which are required the most, are to be outsourced from plugins, a forum admin might go confused, when he updates nbb from, say 0.7 to 0.8 version and majority of plugins go berserk. I was first thinking to suggest that the main NBB team can themselves maintain a couple of plugins which are regularly updated with corresponding core nbb releases. But then, you guys are already busy with nbb, I can see how often you tweak NBB in github, which shows all of you are giving it your best.
So I thought it would be better to adopt the most necessary as core. Once NBB becomes stable, then all these incompatibility issues will subside a lot, also by then more active developers will start releasing and updating their plugins. Hope you take this on a positive note. @julian

Not intentionally, mind you. Breaking changes should be minimised, and they should always have deprecation warnings.
Between a patch version, there should be no breaking changes, only deprecations. A minor version may contain breaking changes, which would be outlined in a "gotchas" thread.

It's a core plugin, not separately maintained, and it didn't break here. I've not seen any issues with the maintained, core plugins and they are just as likely to break as plugins as they are as part of the mainline code when they are maintained by the same people

@julian hmm, by the way I just had a thought, in managed NBB hosting that you guys offer, how do you guys allow plugin installation and all? Do the users of managed hosting get to choose any plugin in npm repository from the ACP like normal non managed forum users. If so, how does the plugin get reset without SSH support, in case the plugin or theme is incompatible or broken???

They ping us using our support ticket system and we uninstall the plugin.
The package manager is undergoing changes right now, so plugin incompatibilities are hopefully going to be a thing of the past. gh#1342

That would suit all needs without having to create one for each provider.
