I’ve just started an Owncast community at !owncast and was sharing this owncat station here since they do music.
I’m not familiar with navidrome, so are you asking to add your music to NoGood Radio? If so I’m not the owner of that instance so yoy’d have to go there to find contact info.
Or are you asking to add your info to the owncast communuty? If so, feel free to post any owncat streams you find interesting there or when you go live.if I’ve completely missed the question the I apologize and please help me undersstand. ,😁
Do you have millions of viewers? With beefy enough hardware I’d assume you could, but not even the biggest streamers on Twitch stream to millions of viewers at a time. But that’s just gaming. I know that Owncast is leveraged by all kinds of folks for different purposes. Some churches use it to broadcast to their congregation, some weddings have done it, funerals, radios, local public access channels, etc.
I personally have a VPS on Hetzner, not sure about others. Obviously hosting is the thing. But I run a VPS for like $8/month, again on Hetzner, and I’ve done small live streams to about 15 people without much issue.
This is literally the self-hosted community. I’m talking about self-hosted livestreaming platform. If you want to call it a blog + video, ok sure. Everything is basically a rehash of everything else. Just trying to share some self-hosted information. And I’m not the dev of Owncast or anything, just someone trying to make others aware of self-hosting software.
I’m not understanding what you’re stating. Me streaming a video game isn’t blogging. If you mean that there isn’t a list of folks all streaming, well there’s directory.owncast.com to find folks. If you mean only you can stream to it, well that’s not true as you can set up multiple stream keys and allow others to stream to it as well. So I’m really not understanding what you’re stating.
Nope. Full self hosted livestreaming. I personally use it to stream games. I started a communit at !owncast/lemmy.world and I’ve listed a few different streams. Some folks game, classic movies, music, etc. It’s your own self hosted Twitch or YT streaming, etc.
You CAN use OBS! I’ve started an Owncast community at !owncast if you’d like to check it out. If you’re used to streaming to YT or Twitch or anything else, OBS is 100% the same, you just pointed it to your Owncast server. Obviously setting up the server is more work, but GabeK has made installation and configuration as easy as possible. It’s pretty awesome imo.
I’m really enjoying it and really excited about it if this continues. I read Douglas Adams a while ago and his stuff just got stale for me as it was silly, but it felt methodically so. So far this is great and I’m really looking forward to more.
I understand that envy though. When you love something and wish you could share it with others and feel their enjoy when they first experience it. Finally watched Casablanca the other day for the first time and wow, so amazing. Been trying to dive into new things as there’s just so much wonder and unknown in all this stuff that it feels so fresh compared to the same rehashed movies we’re constantly fed today.
