Recommendation from the Hive Mind / Brain Trust
- Use Zoom to stream to YouTube as a first test.
Video Casters
Multi-stream to YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- https://zoom.us/ - Facebook, YouTube, Custom Possibly easiest to set up and to stream to multiples service. Has screen sharing and white board.
- https://streamyard.com/ - Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Periscope, Twitch
- https://obsproject.com/ - Difficult to use
Video
- https://www.youtube.com/ - Should be considered the canonical stream. Could be linked to your existing YouTube channel.
- https://www.twitch.tv/ - Could be simulcast here, too. Why not?
- https://www.pscp.tv/ - Since, you're announcing on Twitter, it makes sense to simulcast here.
- https://facebook.com/ - Access to normies.
- https://jitsi.org/
- https://mixer.com/
Video Tools
Not Video
- WordPress - If you're going to create a website, you should use this. Highly configurable and very widely used by devs.
- Medium - Easy to get up and running, but not configurable.
Community
- Discord
Pros and Cons to Consider
