If you put a direct link to a gif or video as the "link" of your post, I think it embeds automatically. But Lemmy right now does not support uploading videos directly.
Embedding works, yeah, but it has to be a direct link. Can't be youtube or such.
It technically does, it's just that not many admins would enable something like that considering how expensive in terms of both hardware resources and bandwidth serving videos would be.
