Good day all! I'm starting up a Peertube instance that'll be moderated for folks, hopefully backed by donations through my nonprofit org BT Free. I'm going to work on setting up Peertube next week. But I was thinking of setting up a moderated index.
Looking at the following link, in the "PeerTube auto follow & Global Search" section: https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/instances-peertube
It seems I can just create a file, put that code in there, set the hosts I want, and then any Peertube can go to Admin - Settings - Configuration - Basic - Search Index URL - and then put in https://ptindex.btfee.org/ . Is this correct?
If so, does anyone know if Peertube can refresh it's host list or if it refreshes on a timer or something?
I'll update if I find out the answer as well.
EDIT: Ok so already realized there's a "Search Index URL" under the "Enable global search" for managing what servers you users can search on. Then there's also a "Index URL" under the "Automatically follow instances of a public index" which you can follow. Awesome. I have it there, but not updated ... yet?
AH! "You need to wait 24 hours after a peertube restart to see a peertube auto follow." And I just restarted it yesterday thinking a restart would force an auto follow job. :-D
Thank you SO MUCH! :-) I'll update later today then! EXCITING! :-D
