Edit: TL;DR: I want to be a streamer and don’t know where to stream to
Edit 2: will be streaming on ssh101 for now. Follow my mastodon account to know what’s coming.
I’m not entirely sure that’s the right community for this question, but a recent post about how we’re in the “golden age of sports streaming” reminded me of the time I used to post and stream matches on reddit. It was fun, sometimes stressful when things went wrong trying to get it back up as quickly as possible, but overall enjoyable.
I’ve thought about going back to it, but I wouldn’t know even where to begin to host a stream. When I was doing it, there used to be platforms you could use to stream at (like ssh101 or streamup), of course avoiding youtube and twitch like the plague, but what about today? What site could one use today without it being taken down every 5 minutes to even start streaming sports events? It seems like it’s a lot harder today than it used to be years ago.
Hey, any chance you can share what you’re using privately? Ive had a frustrating time since the app/service I relied on shut down recently, permanently by the looks of it, and im back to hunting links on websites which arent too reliable. Mainly looking to watch football(soccer), if thats relevant. TIA!
https://www.reddit-soccerstreams.com/
https://streams.footybite.com/home
That’s the best I’ve found, so far.
Thank you, I was aware of these two already, and for the most part the reliability of footybite links havent been great of late, and I had thought the redditsoccerstreams one had shut down completely, maybe this is a copycat or something, in any case, the more the merrier!
It’s a copy. They keep having to change servers, the last few got seized.
Tbh, they do seem to be posting mostly the same links as each other, and the streams aren’t always reliable.
This idea of a ‘golden age of streaming’ doesnt match with my experience. It was better when we were all using acestream!
I’d throw in sportsurge too
