I womder if this is a limitation on the lemmy side. Piefed and mbin(?) And other fediverse services have more info when viewimg videos and pulls in metadata at time of run. Youtube/peertube/raw videos. Users may be assuming the same info is making its way into the community.
Is there a good example somewhere of a blind link i can look at? We can make a comparison and/or comfirm the issue.
One final note: mastodon/gotosocial complains about lack of metadata:
Which is what I would expect.
So to summarize. Yes its all over the place with descriptions and video data all over the fediverse. It would be nicer if people put something in the description. And if fedi clients can maybe auto-push the description on the video to the post like it occurs on peertube/piefed that would be nice as well.

Here is an example of what I’m talking about:

How I see it in my client(Voyager):
• In my feed
• In the post itself
Interesting. So in the original feed it attempted to pull inthe metadata:
On piefed it was also not successful:
https://kbin.earth/ showed the reposts:
Its all over the place. I can see this being frustrating!
