I am looking for people with experience with #owncast or other #fediverse #streaming approaches. Thumbs up / down, lessons learned?
@ewolff Just have set up Mastodon, will look into Peertube later in 2023. So my experience is -1. ;-)
@markus thanks!
@moanos I am just wondering whether it’s worth my time. I guess you sort of already answered that…
@ewolff I have a short writeup from one of my smaller events, maybe that helps even more. What's not in there: More people make a CDN very worth it when your server struggles

@moanos great, thanks! I don’t think there will be that many people on the stream so I think I should be fine without a CDN. Also I understand I could use S3 which should solve bandwidth issues.
@ewolff I've setup a peertube instance, uploaded a video and linked to my video from mastodon and found it fairly easy.
@herdsoft I am using Peertube but I am looking for a live streaming solution. tchncs.de only allows 10 viewers on Peertube streams (which I totally understand).
@moonglum @ewolff Owncast: install & play :) (I’ve customised the look a bit but that’s it on https://owncast.small-web.org)
Also, follow @gabek
@aral Thanks!
@ewolff I watch all the videos from @thelinuxEXP on #Peertube. He may has interesting insights to share.
@thelinuxEXP @romix OK, thanks!
