The 15th anniversary is an important date, for this reason I want to summarize all the anniversaries of the past years to make you understand that we are not joking:

All the improvements made from today are in beta-testing and until the end of this month, and for the future 90 days, they will receive further updates that could improve their functionality even more; we will work every day to arrive until July 1, 2023 with the maximum of the functions already activated and usable. For major improvements we will write new posts on this blog to inform you of the work done. Some improvements, however, such as the surprise theme are still to be implemented and will be active no later than the month of July, 2023.

As always I tell you in these cases, thank you for reading all this and I renew the appointment for MYETV’s 15th anniversary on July 1, 2023.

Thank you; That’s not all, folks. :)
