1. Lemmy doesn’t support videos, does it?

  2. How does PostreSQL handle the emojis, like utf8mb4 or html? This one is out of curiosity 😂.

    YT embed is not that hard to do, it’s basically just a few lines of code, nothing too hard. I have no idea why they would implement PeerTube embed, but not this…

    It’s probably because they want to promote FOSS, but it’s just not viable in a world full of proprietery solutions 🤷. You have to cater to the needs of the users.

      I agree it seems like lemmy devs sometimes get blinded by their own desires over what the community wants or needs. The hardcoded filter being something they were extremely stubborn on and then caved anyway.

      But yeah I’m not a webdev but I’m sure it’s literally one of the easiest things to have youtube embed’s work.

        Trust me, it’s really easy to implement. Almost all video platforms are. FB video embed is the hardest, cuz they change APIs all the time, but YT, Vimeo and the likes, they’re super easy.
