Animated demonstrations in project descriptions currently rely on GIFs or external embeds. GIFs are very large, low quality, and lack video controls. External embeds (e.g., YouTube) dont play automatically and need an interaction, can break or add tracking. This makes it harder to show short, high-quality, looping UI demos directly in the description.
Describe the solution you'd like
Enable support for WebM or MP4 videos in project descriptions.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Animated GIFs: universally supported but extremely inefficient (10–20x larger than WebM), no real controls, poor quality, no proper alpha.
YouTube/streaming embeds: Need interaction to start playing
Additional context
Currently, WebM videos are refused to be shown. Metadata
