One of the most inportant features that lemmy lacks is the embedding of peertube/invidious/youtube videos . If you manage to incorporate this then what you'd have would be basically a huge improvement for the Fediverse. Imagine someone sharing a song/video he found on YouTube and instead of dealing with redirect and opening an entire other app you just click play. Heck, the user could add an "audio only" tag to their post to just show a music player widget.
I was reading through Thunder's issues and here one of the devs of lemmy says that youtube/peertube embed links are already supported in the backend with
post.embed_video_url
.I'm not sure how easy would be to implement that embed in the different apps/lemmyUI however!
Thanks for the info ! I geuss we'll just have to be patient .
