How to disable new "add video from web" feature So it looks like one of the "updates" for pages includes this: when I try to include a link to a video on YouTube, it automatically converts to embedding the video in the document, rather than the link. Does anyone know how to disable this feature? I just want to include the link, not the actual video.

Stop autoplay please ! ! ! Someone at google has messed up youtube, so that when you go to youtube.com it will start autoplaying videos on the front page. After it has finished autoplaying a video it will jump to the next video and start to autoplay that as well. If you scroll down the page it will start to autoplay those videos as well ! ! ! It is so incredibly annoying and frustrating. HOW do you stop this? I have tried this suggestion but it doesn’t help. https://geekchamp.com/how-to-disable-safari-autoplay-videos-on-iphone/ Please help
