I think peertube needs to stick to the basics: a self hostable tube site server that federates over AP for comments and subscriptions. They've got a great API, they've done fantastic work on live streaming, they have WebRTC implemented to distribute server load, and they've figured out searchability across multiple servers with sepia search. I don't see what needs improvement really. Personally I think the 1 click monetization ad driven model is going to die, I don't think a lot of work should be put towards implementing something like this. People are moving towards a sponsorship model or patron model, and we are seeing all sorts of problems with the 1 click monetization with regard to patent trolling, content policing and the like, it just doesn't work out well. Of course with this transition comes a move away from monopoly on tube sites like what YouTube has, if someone is basing their revenue on patrons or sponsors they don't need to keep all their content on one website, peertube pretty obviously fits into this business environment well. So I think as far as monetization, peertube should focus on tools for creators that help them accurately count their viewership and active subscriptions, and integrations that enable people to hide content behind a paywall for patrons, a plugin system for different payment methods would be fantastic. Besides this I think peertube is pretty much feature complete, although some work could be done on decentralizing search.
