You can define success any way you like. But I'm happy with the direction of the project, and I'm thankful for everyone who has helped make it happen.

This blog actually prompted me to set up a lemmy community !owncast@lemmy.world and I shared the blog there and just saw your post as well. :-D

I <3 the #fediverse and #owncast is such an amazing piece of it. Let's take back the internet!

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !owncast@lemmy.world

Is this the fediverse version of Twitch?

Scrolling through the live streams, 90% is piracy and the rest is automated AI/nature/whatever streaming. Didn't see a single "twitch style" human steam.

Is owncast going to struggle with adoption more than other fediverse projects due to the inherent synchronicity of content creation and consumption?

Awesome! I'll be checking it out, I love live streams and hate Twitch, got burnt out of the platform after watching for ~8 years.
