Youtube redirection discrepancy when using channel handles


The edit profile form validation when adding a YouTube channel requires you to input a channel name or @ handle.

Upon inputting a valid @ handle on the YouTube field, the form will save, but users who click the YouTube button on your profile are redirected to

https://www.youtube.com/@$HANDLE

Because you can’t seemingly omit the @ from the input on the form, and Jinxxy adds an extra @ to the redirect, users will always be redirected incorrectly.

E.g input @RetrosAvatarEngineering (as the form validation requires the @)

=> Users are redirected to

https://www.youtube.com/@@RetrosAvatarEngineering (404)
