I use embeds all the time, frankly speaking, this feature added to DEV.to opened API are the key factors that made me adopt it !

🙏 It would be awesome if we could embed Kaggle Notebook and Datasets too

They even have a small feature where you can see the comments on their video.

YESS!! Thank you for mentioning Loom.

I absolutely love Loom and have quite a big collection of Looms. I really outta just create a post here on DEV and drop a bunch of my Looms in there, haha!
