How do you post music to lemmy ? You can post images and video files with music tracks, but what about simple.mp3? (lemmy.ml)

Do I have to convert my mp3 file to mp4 by adding blackout video track using handbrake ?

I don't think Lemmy does take MP4 files. Where have you seen that?

Those are, as you noted, audio-less WEBM files, not MP4s (though it may have automatically transcoded a video into that format). It's essentially a more-efficient form of animated GIF, not really a video in the sense that non-technical end-users likely think of it.
