any way to embed Pixelfed albums in a post body? (lemm.ee)

I run a community on Lemm.ee thats mostly about sharing images. 100kb limit necessitates external image hosting and Pixelfed does the job easy as pie.

I'm just wondering if there's a way to use the embed code that Pixelfed can generate through the share dialog, whether that's in a post body or in a comment. Would be pretty slick.

I don't think there's a way to get a direct link from pixelfed and lemmy doesn't support html in comments as far as I know. I'd love to be proven wrong though, that would be a useful feature

I couldn't think of a better example image besides this Wretched Creature but thankfully, embedding just the image URL works fine.

HTML capabilities would be truly insane and I can only hope.
