Is there any way to embed YouTube, Streamable, Imgur, Gfycat, etc. videos on Lemmy? (lemmy.ml)

I can't found it how can I post embedded videos or posts from social media sites, like on Reddit or other similar sites.

No.

idk why you'd want embeds anyway; those are unnecessary. Just link the video so that I can visit it.

I don't want to go (e.g.) YouTube to watch 4 advert before I can see the video. Embed is so muchier comfy and the site is more entertainable with the embedded video or social post, not only just a link.

it is a balance between security and usability, I assume it leans more towards security

i wonder if it would work to remove the CSP header with a header extension though
