[LIVE] mit „Old World“. Wir setzen unser Spiel mit Babylonien. Aktuell wird unser Reich von einer Regentin geführt, anstelle des noch zu jungen rechtmäßigen Herrschers. Mit viel diplomatischem Hin und Her versuchen wir uns als aufstrebende Macht in der Alten Welt zu behaupten. In deutscher Sprache, und natürlich unter #Linux. https://live.hatnix.net#Owncast#Gaming#DRMfree#Livestream#hatclan
I've decided that I'm going to stop multi-livestreaming for a while and focus on streaming to the Fedi with #owncast
I get more engagement with Owncast and almost none on Twitch and YouTube (aside from trolls) so focusing on broadcasting to the Fedi seems like the right thing to do.
Don't let me down Fedi.

I noticed the company who wanted to add their service directly into Owncast, and I said no, started releasing their own version of Owncast with their own changes in it to support this use case.
I'm not sure how to feel about this. It's kind of a fork, but it's really just another release of Owncast by somebody else. They're releasing something called Owncast with functionality and decisions that have nothing to do with the real Owncast. It specifically says stuff like "Owncast does X", and Owncast does not do X, and will never do X. Only their changes do X.
I fear this may confuse people. If something goes wrong with their version of the software, people are going to ask me for support, and might make the real Owncast look bad. But I don't know if this is wrong, or if this is completely acceptable. It's open source, and the name "Owncast" isn't owned by anybody, as Owncast is an open source project, not a company. So I guess they have the right to do whatever they want and call it Owncast.
But it feels wrong, and it seems like really bad things could come of this.
@gabek If they want to fork #Owncast, they legally can, but they should not call it Owncast anymore. I know #Mastodon & #WordPress are open source as well, but they vigorously protect their trademarks to prevent this type of confusion.
If possible, I would encourage them to rename their fork something else. If they refuse, let us know which company it is so we can avoid doing business with them.
[LIVE] with „The Wolf Among Us“. One of the Telltale classics, and rightly so! Join Detective Bigby Wolf as trouble builds up in Fabletown. When suddenly a murder takes place, your investigative skills are needed. In English language, and of course on #Linux. https://live.hatnix.net#Owncast#Gaming#DRMfree#Livestream#hatclan

POSSE is growing, but will remain in the backseat. Folks that believe Google is the internet won't ever leave even when presented with socially healthier alternatives
I have been directly offering small streamers #owncast instances on my streaming server, no cost excluding their domain, no obligation to donate to the server bill and I do all the setup. Crickets. Just me and @Mrfunkedude right now
The past month has seen us getting a new powerful server, moving every service onto that server and starting a new service as well, Peertube, that I must admit, I wasn't expecting to get that much traction but I've been proven wrong.
Realized the logo on the #owncast server being the same as the O:P logo everywhere else probably wasn't helpful cuz at a glance folks assume it's all coming form this account. So I gave the https://www.operationpuppet.live logo a bit of a tweak.
Probably going to do a special video just about the Owncast server soon. Really want to build on it, I like it a lot.
