  It’s self-hosted, so people that stream need to switch first, which is not happening.

    I switched. :-). People on Reddiy used to tell me no one would switch to Lemmy. Also look at Mastodon.

    I also know some streamers that stream to both Twitch and their Owncast. To each their own. It’s here if folks become interested. Most don’t even know a self hosted option exists.

      Props to you. Though, based on your stream description, you are more technical than most people, which is a huge barrier for entry. Even Mastodon is unattainable for most people.

        I am technical, but here’s the installation for Owncast

        curl -s https://owncast.online/install.sh | bash
        

        owncast.online/quickstart/installation/

        That’s it. The rest is handled from a website front end like Twitch’s. But yes, it’s more than Twitch.
