the first one that appeared (fxtwitter) was made specifically due to a bug where the twitter video player would just simply refuse to play anything in discord embeds

that bug wouldn't get fixed for a very long time, which is probably why it has continued to stay relevant for so long

twitter embeds still use that heavy video player afaik so i guess there's probably a reason for it to still exist for twitter specifically, but for bluesky embeds? instagram embeds? seriously?

@esm Instagram has had issues for a long time and now discord sometimes doesn't embed at all because sharing from the mobile app now gives you a /share/ link that redirects you to the actual post
