<h3>Federation</h3>
Following settings concern the federation with other Peertube instances,
and other fediverse softwares.

Don't display remote chats

By checking this setting, your instance will never display chats from remote videos.

Don't publish chat information

By checking this setting, your instance will not publish chat information on the fediverse.
Remote Peertube instances will not be aware that they are chat rooms associated to your videos.<br>
<b>Please note</b>: if you already had chats in progress, it is possible that the information has already been published.
You will have to wait for the next video update before the information is unpublished.
Also, if you disable this setting, you'll have to wait for the videos to be updated before the information are
published again. This update happens among others when a live event resumes or stops.<br>
<b>Please note</b>: this setting only affects the publication of information via the ActivityPub protocol.
It will not prevent a remote application from otherwise detecting the presence of chats, and trying to connect to it.

<h3>External authentication</h3>
For users that have no Peertube account, you can enable various authentication modes based on remote authentication providers.
