There are way fewer videos on here, but it's a welcomed change. If I wanted to spend time watching videos in the Fediverse, I'd hop on Loops or Peertube.
I think that is done on purpose but I stand corrected. In summery in Friendica you can create a post with an embedded video like the one above but you can't reply with an embedded video (only with a link or an image).

in reply to Liyah Mackenzie Hernandez • •Does video display when I paste the url..? I'm afraid not. How do properly I link to a video, so that it displays here?

in reply to Erik van Schaaik • •Another try, now using the tags [video ] [/video ]:
<td>[video]https://vimeo.com/717451950</td>
That does not work. Now I try with the tag [vimeo] [/vimeo]:
<td>vimeo.com/717451950</td>
It does not seem to embed video either. The Friendica-wiki doesn’t offer a solution.

in reply to Greenpepper • •Uhm... When I reply to your message, I get a paperclip at the top. And it generates the same tags, not embedding the video... Look:

I will try adding video to a new post.

Can you demonstrate your new post?
