What problem does this address?

This may be something that needs to be addressed on Spotify's side, but I can't quite tell.

Spotify offers embed links/code in their service https://podcasters.spotify.com/ . These links currently fail to embed in WordPress in most browsers, though Safari seems to bypass the API errors that occur.

Tested with

  • WP 6.3.2
  • Gutenberg 16.9.0

Firefox 118.0.2

What is your proposed solution?

If possible, adding support for embed links from podcasters.spotify.com. Alternatively, disallowing embedding these URLs altogether could help clear up confusion (as right now, they appear to embed but then fail in most browsers).
