How can I link a Youtube video without thumbnail?

Can anyone tell me a better way of linking a Youtube video in my OCA spaces reference list without seeing the thumbnail?  As I am adding it to a list of references, I don't want to see a thumbnail, just a link address.  I used to be able to do it, but now it seems to have changed.

Thanks.

    Hi  Lyndsey,

    You can add a plain text link by copying the YouTube page link (URL), highlighting the section of text that you would like the page to link from and selecting the 'Insert/edit link' icon as shown in the screenshot below.

    Hi Lyndsey,

    Unfortunately that happens automatically when you paste a Youtube link. However, you can revert the block back to a paragraph block.

    Click on the block to bring up its toolbar, click the Youtube icon to the left of the toolbar, then select Paragraph.
