This week I explore Owncast, an open source self-hosting solution for live streaming. Owncast gives creators like me complete control by allowing us to set up and run our streaming server.
I walk through the simple setup process - from signing up for a VPS provider like Hetzner to completing the one-click Owncast install in under 10 minutes. Then we dive into customizing every aspect of the platform from the admin panel.
Options include setting your instance name and description, uploading a custom logo, tweaking video quality presets, and more. I also cover social features and how to interact with followers, as well as accessing advanced customization through CSS and scripts.
By the end, I've transformed a default Owncast server into a fully customized live-streaming platform tailored to my needs and style. For any independent creators looking for alternatives to centralized services, Owncast provides a powerful open-source option worth checking out. Tune in to hear my full review!
