Why when I switch to the new version of Observable (switch to next), it is no longer possible to embed cells?

Hi. “next” is a distinct platform, and some features have not been ported to it yet. They are shown in light grey to make it clear they are disabled.

I worked on that embedding feature, so it’s always validating to see someone miss it! 😅

Following up to say that embedding is now in Next, and works just the same. Let me know if you have any questions.
