- [Removal of materialized views on PostgreSQL](github.com/iv-org/invidious/pull/2469): If you don't have this on your Invidious public instance, your SSD will suffer and it will catch on fire https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/pull/2469#issuecomment-2012623454
- External video playback proxy: Let's you use an external video playback proxy like https://git.nadeko.net/Fijxu/http3-ytproxy or https://github.com/TeamPiped/piped-proxy instead of the one that is bundled with Invidious. It's useful if you are proxying video and your throughput is not low. I did this to distribute the traffic across different servers. If you are selfhosting only for a few amount of people, this is not really useful for you.
It can be set using this on `config.yml`:
```yaml
external_videoplayback_proxy: "https://inv-proxy.example.com"
```
> [!NOTE]
> If you setup this, Invidious will check if the proxy is alive doing a request to `https://inv-proxy.example.com/health`, and if it doesn't get a response code of 200, Invidious will fallback to the local videoplayback proxy! This is only currently supported by https://git.nadeko.net/Fijxu/http3-ytproxy
- Limit the DASH resolution sent to the clients: It can be set using `max_dash_resolution` on the config. Example: `max_dash_resolution: 1080`
- [Limit requests made to Youtube API when pulling subscriptions (feeds)](https://git.nadeko.net/Fijxu/invidious/commit/df94f1c0b82d95846574487231ea251530838ef0): Due to the recent changes of Youtube ("This helps protect out community", "Sign in to confirm you are not a bot"), subscriptions now have limited information, this is because Invidious by default, makes a video request to youtube to be able to get more information about the video, like `length_seconds`, `live_now`, `premiere_timestamp`, and `views`. If you have a lot of users with a ton of subscriptions, Invidious will basically spam youtube API all the time, resulting in a block from youtube.
