Shameless plug, if anyone here streams check out https://owncast.online/. If you feel comfortable setting up a docker container you can stream on the fediverse, and people on mastodon/other services can sub to you. (You can follow me if you like at https://owncast.scrubbles.tech/ )

Doesn’t this take up quite a lot of bandwidth if you have a lot of viewers?

  This was an interesting question, so I took a quick dive in the docs, it seems it has an S3 integration to help with it, and some comments on the various supported services
  
  More info here: owncast.online/docs/storage/
  
  Still, depending on the chosen provider and the amount of viewers, it could be quite costly

  As everything, a big “it depends”. Each viewer will eat more bandwidth, but you control the compression and qualities. For me, I have an unlimited fiber uplink, so it’s quite easy for me to self host. If someone were more bandwidth constrained, then hosting it on a cloud that then has much more egress may help - at a cost of course, but then your own personal internet would only have the one outgoing stream. Finding a provider that has super cheap egress traffic would probably help
  
  If you have a data cap… well… not a lot you can do.

  There’s also Peertube with the chat plugin if bandwidth is a concern

I’m trying to open your link but I get a Lemmy page saying this link does not exist. Is it a voyager app thing?

  I’m on voyager as well and both links opened fine in app for me

  That’s so weird, the markdown processor got confused. I changed the link

Advertising, yes but in this case I’ll allow it

  Thanks, I knew I was skirting the rule, but I’m on a constant strive to convince people to move to fediverse alternatives. Appreciate the exception, and won’t make a habit of it.
