Recently, one could use #t=2m0s
or #t=120
to set start time for direct links:

as well as for embed videos:

Now it seems YouTube dropped #t start time support and the above doesn't work anymore. How can I now place reference to videos with particular start time?
A sudden decline can be because viewers are suddenly not into the topic of video anymore (this happens a lot with trends, viral videos and news). Your Click Through Rate becomes low and YouTube stops promoting the video. This is why it is so important create evergreen content (opens article).
More viewers on the platform, but view counts are getting lower. If the video length is increasing, this means people will consume fewer videos in a period of time. Once upon a time, YouTube didn't allow users to upload videos longer than 10 minutes. That boundary was pushed until it was completely removed.
YouTube – The Social Media Platform With the Highest Penetration. If the first YouTube statistic we shared didn't get your attention, this one surely will. 62 percent of global consumers say they use YouTube (Statista, 2021).
However, YouTube is changing their terms of services for 2021 meaning that soon creators can monetize channels outside the YouTube Partner Program. A new monetization process is already available in the US - the rest of the world will get access in 2021.
Looks like a different parameter is used now - start=<number of seconds>
(see this blog and documentation).
Example:
<iframe width="420" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Nc9xq-TVyHI?start=110&end=119"></iframe>
For direct links, it is enough to simply replace #
for &
