Edit: TL;DR: I want to be a streamer and don’t know where to stream to
I’m not entirely sure that’s the right community for this question, but a recent post about how we’re in the “golden age of sports streaming” reminded me of the time I used to post and stream matches on reddit. It was fun, sometimes stressful when things went wrong trying to get it back up as quickly as possible, but overall enjoyable.
I’ve thought about going back to it, but I wouldn’t know even where to begin to host a stream. When I was doing it, there used to be platforms you could use to stream at (like ssh101 or streamup), of course avoiding youtube and twitch like the plague, but what about today? What site could one use today without it being taken down every 5 minutes to even start streaming sports events? It seems like it’s a lot harder today than it used to be years ago.
Lemmy, itself, more or less has no rules, but individual instances do and links may violate some of them. More importantly though, publicly linking directories like that can be a good way for them to catch the attention of someone that would want to shut them down.
For sure on that second point. I have a site I use for very specific streams that I won’t share for exactly that reason. The link aggregators, I’ll share them, but probably not publicly, I’d we consider Lemmy’s outward facing forum public. Still feels very new here, although it’s obviously been here for a while and I’m just a new guy.
