+## v5.0.0
+
+### IMPORTANT NOTES
+
+ * **Important** Private and internal video files are now protected. See [#5370](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/pull/5370) for more information, but see below for most important information:
+ * For private/internal videos on filesystem:
+ * These videos are now under a `private/` subdirectory in `videos/` and `streaming-playlists/` directories
+ * Nginx doesn't serve these private files anymore, the requests are forwarded to PeerTube that will check authentication
+ * For private/internal videos in object storage:
+ * These videos have now a private ACL
+ * PeerTube proxifies requests to private object storage (using pre-signed URLs is not possible as explained in [#5370](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/pull/5370))
+ * Torrent files and magnet URIs of private/internal videos don't contain a webseed URL anymore since they require authentication
+ * **Important** You need to manually execute a migration script after your upgrade to migrate private/internal video files:
+ * Classic installation: `cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && sudo -u peertube NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production node dist/scripts/migrations/peertube-5.0.js`
+ * Docker installation: `cd /var/www/peertube-docker && docker-compose exec -u peertube peertube node dist/scripts/migrations/peertube-5.0.js`
+ * Configuration changes (`config/production.yaml`):
+ * There is a new `secrets.peertube` configuration. You must fill it before running PeerTube v5: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/v5.0.0/config/production.yaml.example#L14
+ * `object_storage.upload_acl` is now a parent key that you must update: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/v5.0.0/config/production.yaml.example#L153
+ * You must update your nginx configuration:
+ * We introduced a new `location` for plugin websocket routes: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/v5.0.0/support/nginx/peertube#L135
+ * We introduced a new `location` for private videos files: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/v5.0.0/support/nginx/peertube#L217
+
+### Documentation
+
+ * Add [Monitoring/Observability documentation](https://docs.joinpeertube.org/maintain/observability) using PeerTube OpenTelemetry feature
+
+### Maintenance
+
+ * REST API breaking change:
+ * `role` is now `role.id` and `roleLabel` is `role.label` in user response
+ * We now store the complete remote video description:
+ * Deprecate `description` in favour of `truncatedDescription` when listing videos
+ * Complete description is sent by the server in `description` when getting a specific video
+ * Deprecate `/api/v1/videos/:id/description` endpoint
+ * `search.disable_local_search` disables local search in client search bar only and doesn't disable it on server side anymore [#5411](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/pull/5411)
