Description

We only get 5000 "extract" calls from the embed.ly API per month. We've already gone over on TimelineJS3 with about 10 days left in the cycle.

If we want to provide a no-cost fallback strategy based on embedly, we'll need to use their cards, which don't leave us much opportunity to control the style. But I don't really see that we can afford to pay for all those embeds for people. I guess we could ask for their API key in a form if need be.
