Add upload date and duration search filters

[gesrtewrtwr]

Feature description

Add upload date and duration search filters, like in the PipePipe app (https://pipepipe.dev/08-v3.png).

Why do you want this feature?

Without this essential filter, the search shows all kind of vids that I have already seen, and also the useless and annoying shorts get displayed. YouTube's own duration filter says Over 20 minutes, which is fine.

I'm very surprised that Upload date and Duration are not in the search.

In the meantime I'll use the PipePipe app (same UI, looks like a fork).

As far as I'm aware, devs currently can't implement this because "it requires a lot of structural changes", they're planning to implement it when they're done with the rewrite.

Why have you deleted issue template? which is mandatory for every issue to be filed & considered valid.

Ignoring issue creation rules invites immediate closure of the issues on NewPipe repos without considering the matter of request

Edit it to make it a proper issue adhering to issue creation guidelines with duly filled template, untill then closing.

Yes, that's the why we say to fill the template properly which if OP would have followed then he would not have needed to file this issue in the first place.

• I made sure that there are no existing issues - open or closed - which I could contribute my information to.

What he preferred to not only ignore the template but deleted it. They leave maintainers no other way than closing by applying template ignored & duplicate label, as issue tracker is huge, maintainers being too less in number, specially when they ignore guidelines blatantly while creating new issues.

Onus of checking for duplicates lies on the issue creator read this comment to find why.

I think I didn't use the template bc it was too much to fill out. I saw #2251 before opening my issue, but my is more specific, it only cares about the 2 mentioned things: Limit search to last week and duration above 20min (it's what YouTube already provides).

Really? Can't they simply copy the specific code from the mentioned PipePipe app?

too few*

If it was this simple they would've already done it for sure. I'm not a developer so I don't know why structural changes are needed for this feature, but my guess is that adding it right now would make maintenance even more of a nightmare than it already is. All I know is that they'll probably implement it after they're done with the refactor, and I'm pretty sure they have a good reason for this, they know what they're doing after all.

Anyway, this is still considered a duplicate. Please keep in mind that this is a FOSS project made by volunteers, and ignoring the issue template and making duplicates just wastes their efforts, so please be more mindful when opening issues.
