@aaronpk Aaron, so many popular youtubers dealing with bogus copyright claims now... what is missing on the open source video streaming platforms for them to make the
switch? Is it "just" a matter of network effects?

Yeah there's a lot more to it than just pushing out a video stream. Discovery and payments are the two big reasons to use YouTube/Twitch.

If you stream on your own website, nobody will know unless you tell them thru some other network. If you also want to monetize that you have to sell your own ads.
