Lemmy’s web instances do not display real videos. Also some applications, like Jerboa, do not display videos. Because of this, you have to convert the video to the outdated animated picture format - gif.
This format appears in all applications and web instances, but does not contain audio.
I think if we all flood the developers with requests for video support in Lemmy, things might change.
Are you sure this is a new application?
What about the simplest and most understandable application for beginners, this is the PWA app Pinafore.
For those who have used third-party applications for Reddit, such as Infinity and Boost, Pinafore will be quite comfortable.

And where can I find the compiled installation files?
Many developers post their dev-alpha-beta versions of applications on various platforms.
I wonder why the developers don’t create a release for F-droid?
I’ve tried every Android app out there and Element X is truly the fastest of them all. I’m talking about applications for Matrix, of course.
I hope the application remains fast after adding all the features.

When will Lemmy support the gif format?
Is it possible to sharpen the posted images? This way the text would be better readable.
This is nostalgia! I don’t remember exactly where I first encountered this comic, but it was probably on gum inserts.
I thought people here didn’t like racist jokes
Wow, dvd stores still exist?
The old gif format doesn’t support audio. Anything called gif with audio are mp4 video files. On the imgur site, you may have seen files with the extension gifv, but…
Quote : “When you view a GIFV file on a website such as Imgur, you’re viewing a video file, which would normally have the file extension .mp4 or .webm. The server is configured to serve the video using the extension “.gifv,” but the video’s file format is unchanged.”
