Hello,

Thank you for all the Beta Feedback!

We also want to thank our first content creators for trusting WatchFighters and uploading their content! The first payouts happened already!

In the past few days, we implemented a bunch of improvements.

New for Viewers

Today we launch the first version of the search, which can be accessed on the top of the page. You can search for channels, content creators, videos, and categories. And filter the results. - All that you would expect from a modern search.

New for Content Creators

Another improvement is the auto-generating of thumbnails for monetized videos. Content creators have the option to upload a trailer video, some pictures and text to act as a "preview" for their monetized videos and posts. Now this has been made a bit easier: some still frames from a monetized video automatically become "preview" pictures. This is now activated for all monetized videos, but if you do not like it, you can Edit your preview to disable thumbnails again.

You can access the video settings either on the video page itself (directly below your video) or over the "Edit" menus on the Your content page. You also find a new 'show preview' button that lets you quickly validate what visitors see when accessing your monetized video.

The Small Stuff

Other minor improvements from the past days:

• You can now see the progress of your uploaded videos being encoded.
• Video problems for MacOS users were fixed.
• Improved Explore page
• Bugfixes and performance improvements
• Better layout on smartphones
