OwnCast is a Fediverse alternative to Amazon's Twitch. It's a livestreaming platform with built-in chat. You can chat without an account, or use your Mastodon etc account to verify your chat identity. Lots more info here:

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services @video@stream.labr.online Is Owncast on any app stores or is just for browsers? I found Peertube on the Google Playstore but not Owncast. Should I try other app stores?

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services @video@stream.labr.online Can you upload video, or is it streaming only?

OwnCast is streaming only.
PeerTube is a way of uploading video, it's a YouTube-style Fediverse platform. More info at https://fedi.tips/peertube-video-hosting-on-the-fediverse
A lot of people use OwnCast for livestreaming and then PeerTube for the VODs of their streams 🙂
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services Thanks. I already use Peertube, but I like to have options.
