 I am trying to get youtube shorts, embedded via links, to respond to being
 viewed on mobile by resizing to fit the column like the landscape youtube
 links do. Instead they are overlapping and look messy when viewed on
 mobile:

 I have asked various chat bots to help, and I have been online for two
 hours with WordPress support, they kept suggesting options but we were
 unable to come to a solution and the problem was not concluded. One issue
 seems to be that support was suggesting the same things that Claude was
 suggesting, and they were both referencing menu options in the WordPress
 interface that I could not see. I'm not sure if they are using
 instructions for an outdated version of WordPress interface, or if there
 is a difference in the interface in different countries. But I just need
 help in fixing what I hope should be a simple issue.
