Privacy Note:
With this plugin enabled, your Youtube videos in posts will be lazily rendered in a <div>, as opposed to a Youtube <iframe>.
This plugin ensures that no data will be sent to Youtube prior to the user clicking on the Youtube preview box. We could technically implement a <iframe loading="lazy">, but this method would still automatically send data to Youtube even when the topic loads.
