I think what he is doing is essentially what we are trying to have the extension accomplish on its own but via 1 click. Let me think of how this can be accomplish internally first before introducing external dependencies.

I love this idea. Maybe the API mentioned here would be helpful for this: How can I add a video in Markdown? - Stack Overflow
I could see some potential downsides to that API. Let me know what you think.

I think you mentioned the idea of adding a setting for where Stardown's output will be pasted; that sounds like a good idea for this feature since the clickable image trick might only be necessary for GitHub. Maybe the setting would be something like "Optimize output for ___" with a drop-down list of GitHub, Obsidian, and maybe others. I'm not sure which option should be the default, but I think this setting should go above all the others in the options page.

Edit: I added this setting to the options page. For now it's specifically about youtube videos. Maybe in the future we will have a setting for markdown flavors in general.

Maybe this MIT-licensed regex can help with getting youtube video IDs from URLs: Markdown-Videos/apps/api/src/util.py at main · Snailedlt/Markdown-Videos
