Mark Little had a good bit on this topic, and Van Morrison.

I don't know how to link to specific times, but the bit is around the 6 minute mark.

You can add a t=#m#s to the argument.

For your desktop link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5rlK7gLK6o&t=6m

Or from mobile (removing the share id argument, si=#########-######) https://youtu.be/y5rlK7gLK6o?t=6m

If you click 'share' there's a little 'at current time' button. It'll add a t=### to the end of your link which is just the timecode in seconds.

Works on desktop, idk if mobile is different.

It is. The workarounds I’ve found never seem to work for me. Maybe I’ve just never entered the time code correctly into the url? But I dunno, I’ve tried a few times and failed every single time.

Thanks! I will try this next time I need to post to a specific point in a video. Much appreciated.
