 This is the full checklist, some of the questions have been answered above
 but others remain unanswered. Not everything needs a ''pass'', but it does
 need to be documented as part of the ticket.

 > * Is the service is popular enough for core developers to have heard of
 it before? Is it “mainstream?”
 > * If similar services are already supported, how does this service
 compare in terms of size, features, and backing?
 > * Does this service have a large following on Twitter, Facebook, or
 other social media?  Is its Twitter account verified?
 > * Is its oEmbed endpoint clearly established and properly documented?
 (Sometimes, they are just a developer’s pet project that may not be
 supported.)
 > * Does the oEmbed endpoint work with WordPress’ oEmbed auto-discovery?
 If not, could it be made to work with additional HTML tags or attributes
 being whitelisted?
 > * Does the service make an effort to build relationships with
 developers, such as through robust APIs?
 > * How old is the service?
 > * Does it have a well-established Wikipedia article? (Seriously.)
 > * Has anyone written a WordPress plugin that leverages the service in
 some way, whether adding it as an oEmbed provider, creating a shortcode,
 or leveraging other APIs of the service? Do these plugins have any
 noticeable adoption or traction that would indicate usage and demand?
 > * Is the provider frequently proposed?
 >
 > Individually, these are all very anecdotal. But when considered
 holistically, it paints a pretty decent picture.

 My gut instinct is TicTok ought to be added but part of the aim here is to
 have anecdotal data to indicate the whitelisting won't need to be
 deprecated in a few years.

 Providing links where applicable will be helpful too.
