Https should be supported as well as http. Why? Because someone browsing YouTube via https will otherwise have to modify their link to remove the s. Every time.

  • @MarkTrapp That's the very reason I suggested this :-) HTTPS is all the rage these days...

    Yep, being a semi-kid myself, I love HTTPS, not just for the heck of it, but for the safety that it provides too.

  • @JeffreyLin Agreed. Provided one does not light-heartedly click on the "permanently make an exception"-ish thing for self-signed certificates...

  • This doesn't seem to work when using accessing Arqade via https. I made this answer which contains a video, but it does not show up on the https version of the Arqade page.
