Are we able to post videos or images in the comments? I know that you can post a video in the post such as a sign language video, but are people able to respond with a video comment in sign language?

This will be a big deal breaker for the Deaf Community. At the moment the only option for many Deaf people is to use Facebook.

    Lemmy isn’t the best in regards to a deaf community when compared to Mastodon that has accessibility built into the community values. But it, as far as I know, has the ability to do what you ask should the admin allow it. For that reason, I would suggest starting an instance, that way you can support video uploads, etc. Worst case scenario, you’ll have to host your videos on a third party service.
