It would be nice if discourse allow embed Reddit Videos

AI-generated summary

The discussion revolves around embedding Reddit videos on Discourse. ctrlvb attempted to embed a Reddit video but it didn’t work, and asked if there are any settings that need to be enabled. Falco explained that the video embed feature for Reddit hasn’t been implemented yet and directed the discussion to a centralized thread on Meta Discourse (https://meta.discourse.org/t/embedding-redesigned-reddit-topics-with-video/150603). Meanwhile, pfaffman suggested that a theme component could be created to achieve this functionality, similar to what they did for Strava and Garmin oneboxes.

Reddit allow embedding but code does not work on discourse.

Is there any settings we need to enable?

I made a theme component that will take strava and garmin oneboxes and make them into embeds in the browser (GitHub - literatecomputing/runners-onebox-theme: Custom oneboxes for Garmin and Strava · GitHub).

The same approach could be used to make the stock onebox into the embed code described in the other topic.

I suppose the same approach could be used for a PR to do it in core.

Yes, that’s the current status.

No, because no one has implemented the video embed feature for Reddit yet.

This feature request is well-tracked at Embedding redesigned reddit topics with video. Let’s centralize the discussion there, shall we?
