This was made in response to TwitFix/fxtwitter shutting down.

It uses the twitter:player:* meta tags with mp4 video links.

The big downside right now is that descriptions won't be embedded on videos. TwitFix worked around this with yet another embed tag called oEmbed.

Very interesting solution, thanks! Unfortunately it's not ready yet due to the issue mentioned here: #562 (comment)

Digging through the proxy code, the actual data transfer code appears to already be chunked, no?

Chunked yes, but special support for Twitter's mp4 quirks was necessary. Implementation here, testing would be greatly appreciated: #634

I gave up. Discord keeps breaking embeds.
