It will. Reddit only added video hosting in the past couple years. Before that, everyone just linked imgur and other hosting sites.

I bet the largest servers will eventually have their own hosting platform too, but for now it’s one of the growing pains.

But that’s not really a feature of Lemmy itself, but the program reading it.

For example, if I’m using a Lemmy app on my iPhone and I see a post with a YouTube link, the app is the one that needs to implement this embedded view feature.

Went Lemmy.world because I had no idea how any of this worked.

Gonna stick with it for now, because there isn’t really a reason to switch. In the future I might switch or host my own.

Thank you. Wefwef is awesome but search is a little flaky.

But it’s sustainable if it’s non profit.

Most third party Reddit users were happy to pay in the range of $5 a month. The reason everything is shutting down now is because they don’t just want to break even, they want profit, and a shit ton at that.

The fediverse makes social media non-profit by default which means that we can all share the cost.

Wikipedia is one of the largest websites in the world and is still non-profit. It shows that it’s sustainable.

I have a buddy who’s into gundam, I’ll let him know about it when I tell him about Lemmy if you give me a link :)

Speaking of those large subs. Does anyone have the equivalent of world news, news, and games subreddits here?

I found a technology one, just need to grab those other ones. Links appreciated.

I don’t interact much with Reddit but plan to do a lot here to help it grow :).

Someone needs to leave that first comment on posts to spark a conversation.

Personally I would like to see this become what the xboxseriesx subreddit is right now.

That sub has great moderation and meaningful discussion in most comment sections.
