The lack of video support is understandable tbh in 2 ways.
Storing a bunch of videos are really costly for the instance owners
Direct Youtube play on Lemmy directly probably won’t ever happen, since Lemmy uses an open embed protocol (opengraph) and YT doesn’t or something like that. There was an issue about this topic on Github but can’t find it.
By this logic Instagram and TikTok are better than either, and yet the more any social media site becomes like those two, the more quickly I want to leave it.
Anok most likely means that the average Joe prefers convenience over freedom/privacy etc, and this is a convenience part that Lemmy seriously lacks in currently.

That doesn’t change the fact that this problem exists. Reddit’s superior multimedia support makes it a more competitive social media platform.
Never thought I’d ever read those 4 words in that order.
Well, you did (;
Can’t argue with that.

Thank you for saving my time.
