@FediTips @owncast How’s one supposed to choose between OwnCast vs PeerTube to do livestreams?

    @villasbc OwnCast is more like Twitch, PeerTube is more like YouTube.OwnCast's chat system is better integrated, PeerTube's livestream chat is an add-on that not every server has.The main drawback on OwnCast is you have to create your own server, whereas you can do livestreams on PeerTube by signing up on someone else's server.
