In this episode of Lorenzo's Music Podcast, I meet Gabe Kangas, the maintainer and primary developer of Owncast, free and open-source live video streaming software. Gabe shares the inspiration behind Owncast, which emerged during the pandemic as a response to the challenges musicians faced with mainstream streaming platforms. We explore how Owncast allows users to host their own live streams without relying on big tech companies, offering a self-hosted alternative for artists and creators.
Gabe discusses the technical aspects of setting up Owncast, including server requirements and the cost-effectiveness of hosting your own streams. We talk about the user experience, including how to integrate chat features.
