Support oEmbed for embedded links

[mikix]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some mastodon clients (maybe only the official app?) use a richer preview option called oEmbed for links.

I believe adding support to Mammoth for those richer previews would add more joy to the world.

Describe the solution you'd like Implement similar rich preview cards like the official client has (presumably via oEmbed).

I assume you folks already know more about what options exist and what oEmbed is than I do, so I won’t even try to explain it, as I don’t know what’s involved in its implementation.

Official iOS client playing a streaming music link preview inline:

Mammoth with that same link looks nice, but only links externally, without any inline play functionality:

Thank you!

Hey there! Wonderful feedback, I've just added a feature request ticket for it — Thanks for letting us know about it, seems promising.

this is also a good way to display threads posts when quoted, for example, and peertube videos when they're converted over from activitypub.
