Most kids today don’t know how to use a computer, but old farts like me use yt-dlp.

Nothing fancy, I just run this docker image which allows streaming to via OBS, and we can watch the streams with VLC. I’m sure there are better ways to do it but that works well enough for us. Do note that a few seconds of latency is to be expected with RTMP.

My guess is that it would be difficult to find a piece of software that does all the stuff discord does. But I also think it’s a non-issue. You could split these needs onto multiple solutions. My group uses mumble for gaming voicechat, Signal for group conversations, and a simple rtmp server for streaming. We don’t need nor use discord and never did.

I like the idea of a single piece of software that does one job well instead of a giant powerhouse that does everything.

Mumble is so underrated. It does one job and but does it very well.

Putting everything on discord makes information unsearchable via search engines, which is objectivily not great. This recent habit is contributing to killing the web.

On a more subjective note, I just don’t like it. On the top of my head : Confusing interface, wont’ shut up about nitro, requires a phone number.
