Either with the present site, or down the road when the new redesigned site premiers:  Would it be possible to get buttons to post up embedded videos from Vimeo & Dailymotion, similar to the existing youtube and Rumble buttons?

Thank you Goatboy for your response.  I appreciate any consideration you can give to adding these features in the future if and when possible.

I don't see any of the social medias giving a shit about this? to be fair, you can turn it off on almost all those sites, though.  Netflix comes to mind.

Couldn't you make it a user setting option to only display a link for sites that force autoplay?

Also, how real of a concern is bandwidth these days? I bet if you made floor mats for cars, you'd leave space on the left corner for the dimmer.
