If you could improve PeerTube, what would you improve?

VLC is adding AI generated subtitles, I wonder if it would be possible to co-opt that?

[pseudo@jlai.lu]

That would be nice.

[meldrik@lemmy.wtf]

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

[fizz@lemmy.nz]

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

[meldrik@lemmy.wtf]

True, but I wouldn’t want to have a wallen garden, like Instagram or Twitter, where it forces you to create a user.

[fizz@lemmy.nz]

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.

There is a PeerTube plugin for premium subscriptions that does exactly this: https://github.com/kontrollanten/peertube-plugin-premium-users

Not bad, but it is a bit limiting with Stripe only and the Stripe ToS forbidding a lot of common usecases.

@jagged_circle sorry the entire decentralized NOSTR interface is based on the lightning network. So while most clients support "likes" what it more prevalent is "Zaps" a Zap is a micropayment of bitcoin over the lightning network (one zap is equal to one Satoshi equivalent to 100 millionth of a bitcoin). This incentivizes both the infrastructure and the content. Make something people like, get paid without a central corporation exploiting.

@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.
