This is not an April fool. As always the first quarter of the year, in April, we develop news and new features for MYETV and for the entire platform- [Platform: the set of the main domain and all the subdomain of a particular website; also the computer architecture and equipment using a particular operating system] - ; our main investors expect great news in this period of the year as the first four-year period must bring many new things so as to be able to work on perfecting them for the rest of the year; and as usual we do not disappoint expectations, bringing lots of news and new features. Every year we propose a plan to be able to continue our work throughout the year and July 1, 2023 marks 15 years since the creation of the MYETV platform. Here I list all the news and new features we are working on or that have already been implemented in the platform:
ATTENTION: From Monday 10 April 2023 to the start of May 2023 due to a move of the current infrastructure to fully open source facilities on another DNS/NameServices, there may be service disruptions in the coming days/weeks for some or all countries where MYETV is online; these disruptions may “cascade” across the various regions of the World. We apologize for the inconvenience and invite you to use the platform with caution, we will temporarily disable the post of new contents- [Contents: every content intended as text, images, audio or video] - when it will be necessary. If that should happen we will restore all the services as soon as possible. This blog is currently completely moved to the new infrastructure with success.

This year will be very challenging for all of us and it will be a year made up of choices that can affect our future; we would like to be able to be more independent and certainly to be more self-sustainable both in terms of moderation and in terms of financial sustainability. For this reason these months will be essential to achieve the various goals we have set ourselves; there are many of us and all with different thoughts and personalities, some would like to do something more and others would like to have an ever-improving platform. We cannot guarantee 100% perfection but we can certainly have fun and entertain everyone and this is certainly one of the objectives set.
As i said before, the 1st July of 2023 will be 15 years of MYETV so all these new features will be in beta testing and we will update and improve all these features in the 3 months ahead; we are already doing a great job to implement them and we will take another step forward to perfect them, making them accessible and usable by all.
That’s all, folks. Stay tuned because the list of new features will be updated in the next few days where we will announce news.
