    PieFed 1.6.x doesn’t support video embeds using the ![]() format, just images. However, I recently added this functionality so that it will be in 1.7 when it comes out. There are going to be lots of improvements to the markdown parsing coming in 1.7.

    Edit: My instance is running the latest 1.7.x code (not stable yet), but below I have added an embedded webm video. You will probably need to click to see my comment on my instance in the three dots menu.

    Piefed.social also does not show it, Lemmy.world shows. All three use the same url in the source

    Piefed’s markdown problem with ![]() or the instances not allowed to access r2a.primal.net?

      Hmm. 🤔

      A list with 4 entries: The video that didn’t show in markdown, a video from another site with the same syntax, again, but named, then an image, same syntax.

      If the comments get parsed the same as posts, then there’s something with markdown.

    Videos work on Blorp, so it seems it’s not a Piefed-specific issue. Though for some reason the c/politicalvideos community on .zip doesn’t load with Blorp.

    Both work when clicking on the link in voyager.

    Opening in browser works for the db0 link.

    Opening in browser the piefed.zip link does not work (doesn’t even show a video player or thumbnail image).
