Any plans to allow video uploads to the forum?

Heya Umbraco Admins :waving_hand:
Is there any plans to allow the forum to upload videos to forum posts?

Sometimes just words, code snippets or screenshots is not enough and sometimes a short video trying to explain an issue or problem can help get across a problem or solution quicker.

Curious to know if any other discourse forums/communities allow it or not and how they handle it.

Cheers,
Warren

An option is to create a GIF from the video. Haven’t tried it here, but because it’s an image, it’s usually accepted.

Hold that thought (I need to upgrade Discourse..)

Yep used ScreenToGif in the past and can be better than just a static image, but if we can have video that would be great, as then you can dictate and try to explain your problem as your moving about the screen.
