That's a nice start, hope they will be able to hit other goals as well:

  • Play videos in background
  • Cast your videos to your TV
  • Get notified of newly released content
  • Change the video definition

Goal #2: Share videos from your pocket €35,000

  • Manage all channels of your account
  • Edit video chapters, subtitles, info, etc.
  • Get detailed stats of your content Upload new videos from your mobile

Goal #3: Livestream from your mobile €55,000

  • Set up & manage livestream
  • Use device cameras & connection
  • Stream live from your hand
  • No more need for a secondary mobile app dedicated to live streams

Does any of this include improving the front page to actually serve content that people want? Because PeerTube has a serious problem with advertising what people want to watch on the Home and Discovery pages. PeerTube isn't going to work as a replacement for YouTube until people will be able to find new channels that they like.

Is there even an algorithm behind any of this mess, or does it just push random channels?
