Description

tagging in video description text broken when YouTube No Translation extension is enabled, which means instead of the tagged youtube channel being clickable, a spacing before and after the tagged channel is removed, too.

E.g. instead of "Joaquín Alviz of ‪@Techandising‬ who" , it turns it into "Joaquín Alviz of@Techandisingwho" when the extension is enabled.

E.g. of a youtube where this is a broken, check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syNm0OPgAd8 's video description.

Steps to Reproduce (if you noticed a specific pattern)

in the video's editor, tag a channel you wanna tag, via @
it is visiably transformed into a clickable link in the editor by changing its colour indicating that it's a hyperlink to click at
