Allow us to submit .mp4 in posts instead of just gif

Gif is a horribly bloated file type compared to mp4.

The gif supplied in my bug post (PlayerList coregui has a very annoying input-stealing bug with controller
) to visualize the repro is 3.61 MB.
The .mp4 version is 324 KB. Much better and faster to load. Heck discord can embed mp4…

*The alternative is to use gfycat and link a webm but I don’t want to use a 3rd party service that may or may not go down, and also with file limitations. I just want to upload the file I have.

Also YouTube as an alternative, which is what I use.

Support! I’ve encountered this a few times and it’s pretty annoying when I could just… drag it into the editor.

Hey @Maelstronomer, we have now enabled .mp4 file uploads - please could you test this out and let me know if it doesn’t work.

None of these work on my browser (I am using Opera and am adamant about never using Chrome).
