Roadmap

Where Otaku Forum is headed

An honest look at what we're building — and what isn't here yet, and why. Some things (like video in the galleries or saving stream replays) are on hold purely because of storage costs while we grow; they're not forgotten. This is where we keep you in the loop.

Video in the galleries

We'd love to let you hang short video clips in the galleries alongside artwork. It's planned — but video is heavy, and storage costs would jump well past our current budget while the community is still growing. We'll ship it as soon as we can host it sustainably (or with a smart size/length cap).

Saved stream replays (VODs)

Right now live streams are watch-live-only: once a broadcast ends, it isn't kept. Storing every stream is a large, ongoing storage cost we can't justify yet. We're exploring keeping short highlights, or optional creator-side saving, so nothing good is lost forever.
