What do y'all think of the live streaming platform, Owncast? (owncast.online)

How good of an alternative is it to twitch? I've seen pretty less discussions about it compared to other fediverse platforms

OwnCast is wonderful. It's dead simple to set up and use, and works great with OBS.

I tend to prefer streaming through PeerTube, simply because the platform has more features. But for simplicity, OwnCast can't be beat!

The Fediverse integration of the chat is definitely better in Owncast as well, but in Peertube you can make it federate via XMPP with a little bit of extra effort, which is also nice.
