On a separate topic: If anyone knows how I can post embedded video on Lemmy, please let me know.
- Upload the video somewhere you get a direct link to the file. Not a webpage, just the URL for the mp4/mkv/webm/etc. Note that Imgur (literally short for image url) and i.redd.it recently make it difficult or impossible to use their media embedded on other pages. Here are common options that work nowadays:
- a. your Lemmy instance's default host aka pict-rs (not recommended) – the web GUI usually allows the upload of pictures and often also video. Depends on the instance's configuration, which isn't usually public, but I think the defaults effectively force you to upload a WEBM file with VP9 video and optionally OPUS audio, less than 10 MiB, and no more than 900 frames. This is very limiting and you need some encoding skills. Instance owners already have lots of struggles keeping servers running so don't give them extra data to host.
- b. catbox.moe (recommended) – huge community-funded server for embedded media. Semi-frequent outages.
- c. make a GitHub repo for your images – may be cumbersome but hosting your images is now Microsoft's job and they have a blazing-fast, reliable CDN
- d. create any GitHub issue, upload your files, grab the links and close the issue – Microsoft keeps hosting the files and they aren't visibly tied ro you. However, they have no real obligation to keep them hosted forever.
- Paste the media link into Lemmy:
- a. For posts, make a Link Post and paste it as the post link. Optionally, add a transcript or thumbnail URL into the appropriate fields.
- b. For post or comment text, use this syntax:
