One of the only things I find myself missing about reddit is the videos. I’m aware that it’s not really feasible for videos to be hosted on a lemmy instance at the moment, but I’m curious if that might change

    Just curious, is it not feasible because of the storage space the videos would take up or something to that effect?

      They could just let us use embed code like this:

      <iframe width=“560” height=“315” src=“https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/oHg5SJYRHA0” title=“YouTube video player” frameborder=“0” allow=“accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share” allowfullscreen></iframe>

      Doesn’t have to be hosted on the instance.
