Cross-posted from "If you could improve PeerTube, what would you improve?" by @asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev in !asklemmy@lemmy.world


What keeps you away from PeerTube? What features does PeerTube lack? If you were the developer of PeerTube, how would you improve it?

Automatic subtitles. I know... Not the easiest functionality to develop but I do miss it from Youtube.

Unskippable one-hour long ads. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

Multiple audio tracks for different languages.

I want the ability to have everything behind a login. I don't want people not signed in watching videos and wasting bandwidth.

I mean I guess this would be an OK option. Disabled by default. IMHO this is the problem with YouTube lol

[โ€“] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You can. You can set a video as "internal only". So only users registered on the server, can watch it.

[โ€“] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Yes but they won't federate out which defeats the point of peertube.

[โ€“] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

True, but I wouldnโ€™t want to have a wallen garden, like Instagram or Twitter, where it forces you to create a user.

[โ€“] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 5 months ago

It would be instance by instance policy. I think there are many cases where an instance should only be available to users behind a login while still federating with its network.

@Fizz @meldrik in Free Software nothing ever "defeats the point" it just may not fit your particular use case. One of the advantages of Free Software is that it can be used by anyone for any reasons.

Ads. If I could press a button and inject 30 second ads into videos that would cover the cost of the server, I'd run an instance today and start mirroring a fuckoad of content from YouTube

The ability to post a video to multiple co-authors' channels.

I thought about uploading videos, but I could never figure out how.
