Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
For tweets with videos in them. Is it possible to embed the video in the RSS feed. Instead of having to click the link and open nitter to play the video.
At the very least some indication that a post is a video instead of a static image.
I think this is because as Nitter uses RSS feeds while video requires
.atomfeeds.I believe Nitter does use atom feeds:

Videos are currently impossible because they require JavaScript, but an alternative is in the works.
Hi, I followed some other Atom feed with video tag, maybe this help?

Support for this will be implemented when #634 gets merged
Any updates on this matter ? @zedeus ?
When will be this gets merged?
looking forward to this too! any estimates on when we could be seeing this happen? like within the year?
It's very difficult to get right without blowing up servers, and there's higher priority work that needs to be done first like switching out some API endpoints. Within this year probably, if I can get it working properly.
Are there any ways I am missing to deduce that there even was a video in a post from RSS? I can find the video URL in the original HTML of the Nitter version if I at least know I need to look, but I don't really want to have to sift through them all on the off-chance.
