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.
I was wondering where I could be streaming the events, not where to watch it.
Consider me having misunderstood then. Out of curiosity, why would you stream? And I cast no aspersions asking, just curious as to someone’s rationale: income, fuck the system, goodness of their heart.
I’ve always liked sharing stuff. I never got any money when I used to stream, some people asked if they could donate I always said I’m not interested. I used to rely on streams, after when I was able to stream myself, I wanted to give back.
