Add video description with rich text capability
under review
Javid Igani
I find myself relying heavily on a description of a video before committing to watching the full thing. Having the ability to add a description below the video gives creators the option to describe why viewers should watch the full thing, what they will learn, and provide additional reference links as needed. The screenshot attached is from a recent Tella post on YouTube with lots of informative and related content referenced.

I need this with links. That way I can send someone to Tella with a link, and if they like what they see, they can click the link in the description to follow through.
Right now, because it DOESN'T do that, I don't share Tella at all but just a gif from Tella with the link in the direct message I send someone.
Or I use Vimeo or Youtube to host instead, though I borrow the nice preview Tella generates, I just swap out the link to Youtube...

Hey Javid, nice idea! Like Youtube you'd probably also want to have timestamps in there? When you say "rich text", how rich do you think we should go? Comparing to Youtube they mostly have links and whitespace, no bold/italic/headers etc. Just curious how you'd think about that :)

Michiel Westerbeek: Yes! Timestamps would be fantastic. By "rich text" I thought at least bold/italics/hyperlinks.
