I thought you can just embed images and other media [1]. They have to be stored in the attachments folder [2].

iiuc, it's both. drag / paste an image into obsidian it will automatically be stored in your attachments folder (regardless of what note you're in) and a preview is placed in the note itself

That's not really my experience. It depends on your browser and configuration on how well this works. Firefox for example does not work, but chrome does. With Firefox it instead creates a broken <a>-link with nested <img>.
