Reports are also sent to moderators of the instance where the reported item (video, account or comment) is hosted. They are displayed in the <i>Administration</i> menu - <i>Moderation</i> tab - <i>Reports</i> page. The new video player on this page makes it easier to accept or reject a report. Moderators can also send messages to local accounts (registered on the same instance) that made reports: they just have to go to the column <i>Messages</i> and click on the little bubble.
Roadmap step 1, the video search on the entire vidiverse is now accessible to everyone. By creating this index engine (a tool to index all videos and channels of predefined PeerTube instances), we are now allowing instances administrators to set the search bar of their instance to search on the entire (or a portion of) the vidiverse.
Setting up a new livestream is like uploading a new video. The default setting will get you one PeerTube URL, one video container (with description and thumbnail and tags...), and one RTMP Key for each of your livestreams. This setting is useful if you want to host multiple lives simultaneously on you channel. When your live is finished, it will be replaced by the replay (if both the instance admin and the content creator have activated this setting).
So if our plans for 2021 and PeerTube's v4 don't match your priorities, that's completely OK, but we won't do more nor go faster. Remember that you are free to fork PeerTube to lead it in another direction, or to contribute by coding plugins and issues (<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://docs.joinpeertube.org/contribute-getting-started">get started on contributing here</a>).
So we need your help to share the roadmap around you, and get the word out about PeerTube. Feel free to share this project in your blogs, vlogs, podcasts: some of you have already done so, and it helps us a lot (plus it really warms our free-software-lovers' hearts)!
So we plan to take some time from this third stage of development to create such a web interface and put it online. Of course, this code will be free so that others can publish their PeerTube search page with their own choice of instances to index.
Streamers will also have the option to enable "permanent live". It will work more like Twitch does: your permanent live URL and video container will correspond to a single RTMP key. You can go live and stop it whenever you want, the live will be broadcast on the same URL. This setting does not allow saving a video for replay, though.
Such customization will have a direct impact on search, and on search results. Moreover we plan to extend the search scope to playlists so they can be displayed in search results. We also plan to improve search result pages with a more ubiquitous sorting/filter system and a better interface.
Thanks to <a href="https://joinpeertube.org/roadmap/#support" target="_blank">your support</a> we've been able to develop the system of global video search on PeerTube during June. We have published a tool which index all videos and channels from all PeerTube instances listed on the <a href="https://joinpeertube.org/instances#instances-list" target="_blank">public directory</a>.
