Can I link youtube channels, videos and posts?
Trying to make a TIRAP topic about something but I'm not too confident on what I can and can't say.
Edit: I should add, I don't believe anything I'm linking is non-scratch friendly.

No it's not allowed.
Because YouTube has a completely different moderation setup to scratch, it isn't appropriate to link said websites together as there would be further safety issues.
EDIT: The title wasn't exactly clear, I assume the question was ‘can you link youtube channels, videos etc on scratch’ or similar.

you can, as long the thing you're linking to is scratch appropriate
though keep in mind that it's automatically off-limits if the thing you're linking to has living streams (i literally cannot say that word)

Does ST have a particular stance on this or is it a grey area?

Right, just to clarify:
Channels and community posts are a no-no.
Videos are fine only if you use the forum version of the link.
Yes or no?

Links to channels are allowed if all content on the channel is appropriate for Scratch. (source)Sadly I cannot guarantee that the comments are fine

I'll just link videos I guess.
