@fediverse What type of social media do you feel is lacking most in the fediverse?

To elaborate, there are a lot of different types of social media already on the fediverse such as microblogs, regular blogs, image sharing, link sharing and video sharing.

Personally, I'd love to see a gaming-focused social media platform on the fediverse.

fyi there's an android app called larix broadcaster that allows you to livestream to peertube directly from your phone.

@dave @ch0ccyra1n @owncast @fediverse @smallcircles so. Think this would be own hosted

@dave @ch0ccyra1n @owncast @fediverse @smallcircles thanks. But all peertube instances does not give confirmation mail. Or does not accept new users

@redegelde @ch0ccyra1n @owncast @fediverse @smallcircles
I want to say that a raspberry pi or similar low power computer with yunohost installed is more than capable of self hosting peertube on the cheap.

A recent update on mine has broken something though, so I can't vouch for how easy it is these days. It should be possible to have your own instance set up with a few clicks though.

As long as your internet connection is fast enough to stream the video, it does the job without you having to pay for hosting.
