Can we post videos? (self.support)

The Create Post page says that it can accept videos in the html, but when I just tried to upload an mp4 I got this error:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

Are we supposed to be able to upload videos here?

Looking at this issue, at a glance it looks like videos may not yet be supported regardless of size.

But yes, having embedded videos would be great. I think this is a polish thing that will be added over time as more critical things get resolved. If Lemmy continues to grow, that will also attract more help from developers as well so development may move faster.
