Description

When a status contains a link to YouTube or Peertube, the webui (and the official mastodon iOS app) shows an embedded video player. It would be nice if Ice Cubes would as well.

Research direction

The issue names YouTube and PeerTube links and compares Ice Cubes with the web UI and official Mastodon iOS app, but it names no file or test. Start by locating status-link rendering and existing media preview handling, then compare current behavior with the expected embedded-player behavior. Done means supported links display a video player in Ice Cubes.
