Hey, just a quick tip, when posting videos on Lemmy, it’s generally good to include the video length and the channel in the title, and then include a short summary in the post description. You are certainly not required to do any of this, but videos tend to get better responses here when people include those details.

If Lemmy had YouTube embedding, like a certain other platform it’s trying to emulate, this wouldn’t be a problem.

As it stands, it can’t even extract the thumbnail properly. (I have to do that myself.)

yes, using a smaller platform means forgoing some of the conveniences you are used to on a larger platform. but we all make do because we’re here for the community, not the features.

I agree that that’s useful information. I wonder though, if it is that useful, if Lemmy or the Lemmy app does that automatically?

My instance doesn’t show any of that, and neither does my app. So if anyone has that info automatically, it’s because their instance admin or app dev did that for their specific case.

@Penguincoder@beehaw.org Is there any way to set this up?

Would require frontend work and maybe some glue for the backend. I think the Photon Front end does some of those embeds. I’m sure there’s others, but not confident that any would work with Beehaw’s older Lemmy version. Better to spend energy on the sublinks convert, or my home-grown alternative Fediverse stack.

Agreed and thanks!
