!Friendica Support Not sure I asked this before: What approach do Friendica folks use for posting smaller video clips? Would like to cut depending on pixelfed just for that...
@Kristian You will have to stick with Pixelfed, Friendica at this point doesn't allow the uploading of video clips. I'm just glad I no longer have to have a mastodon or pixelfed account for cut and pasting photos. that was a massive pain.
@Michael Vogel @Kristian Every time I think "Friendica needs that" someone else is already working on it and has it ready to go for the next update. Friendica is now truly the best though least known fediverse platform.
@Michael Vogel Please How likelly is it that we might also be able to upload audio files in the future? I'm thinking MP3 / MP4 / ogg / opus files. Or is it already possible and hitting browse button when composing the post is not enough? @Kristian @anubis2814
@Michael Vogel I have pulled from the latest develop branch yesterday. Now if I navigate to the compose page, I can press "Drop files here to upload" button and from the open dialog I can only upload image files. Should I be doing something else if I wish to upload an audio file? @Kristian @anubis2814

@Kristian You can embed any video with the [video][/video] tag if you know the direct link to the video file. That means that, if you upload the video to a website like catbox.moe which allow you to access the full url publicly, Friendica can fetch it. Here's an older video of mine that I just uploaded for testing purposes:
This also works if you can find a video online instead, posted by others. In the past, I used cobalt.tools to fetch the link, but now it seems that, at least on Firefox, it is downloading the link directly. Here's an older post I made using the tool. It was a video posted on Xitter and there was no way for me to find it on fedi (hope you can see it on your instance):

Videos are working again. Tusky: The app says that the video limit is set to 0 MB.
