fixupx.com and fxtwitter.com compatibility

Problem

fixupx.com and fxtwitter.com natively embeds with fluxer with a very small picture (see screenshot below), as opposed to the nice large viewable picture/video that these domains natively embed on discord, telegram, etc fluxer: image discord: image Also, when natively embedding a video using one of these kinds of domains, fluxer seems to the only chat app that doesn't show a volume slider for videos, and the videos absolutely do not full screen properly by any stretch of the imagination.

Proposed solution

Make it so that these embed URLs (and any others) natively embed the posted content into fluxer: fixupx.com fxtwitter.com xsky.app fxbsky.app tnktok.com xnstagram.com

Notes (optional)

some of these sites hosted at the aforementioned domains have multiple ways to natively embed content through the domain alteration. You may need to check these sites to see how to make this happen and what other domain alts they offer. This is something that will be very important to help people widely adopt fluxer (and I want them to do so). Obviously other things will likely take priority over this, I just wanted to note it here.

This is actually not fluxer's fault but more so fxembed's fault as they filter by user-agents in https://github.com/FxEmbed/FxEmbed/blob/main/src/constants.ts#L30 and https://github.com/FxEmbed/FxEmbed/blob/main/src/constants.ts#L31 but on another note they do embed just not when the worker that resolves the embed is down then everything doesn't embed in the first place

So Is it just the same reason gifs are just showing links from the gif chooser rn? Will this work right after the devs obtain more capacity for the influx of users?

yeah the GIFs aren't embedding due to the same issue with the stuff not working properly. it occasionally just works and occasionally just doesn't, just have to wait for stuff to be more stable

I guess it's not really an issue then.

Re-opening this discussion as I believe the native embeds that are now working could benefit from some small improvements.
