🎥 We Set Up an Owncast Server LIVE – Self-Hosting Adventures Begin! 🛠️🦝

In this video, I teamed up with my amazing friend Luis Quintanilla to kick off a journey into the world of self-hosting—starting with setting up my very own Twitch-like server! 🖥️🎉 Why? Because I’m all about taking control of my content, learning through pain (the fun kind), and adding raccoons wherever possible. 🦝✨ Together, we: 💻 Walked through the full Owncast setup process from scratch in Azure 🎨 Explored customization options and features 💬 Talked about why self-hosting matters for indie creators 😅 Shared laughs, nerdy tips, and the occasional "oops" moment Owncast is a free, open-source livestreaming platform that connects beautifully with the Fediverse and lets creators truly own their streams—no platform overlords here. Whether you're curious about self-hosting, love open-source projects, or just want to see two nerds go live with purpose and passion, this one's for you. 🔗 Links mentioned in the video: Owncast: https://owncast.online/ Luis Quintanilla: https://www.lqdev.
