@owncast@mxks And hey...this is Kit, the person behind @mxks and the Owncast Newsletter! I'd love to have some friends along for the ride developing the #Owncast#Roku channel! DM me or email me if you're interested in helping!
You might think after reading this post "Hasn't Owncast been saying this for years?" Yes. And we still haven't given up!
As new, very cool, features start to get planned, the Owncast project is on the hunt for a user experience designer to help us turn them into reality.
Do you want to have a say in how new features, that will get into people's hands, work and look? Now is the time to get involved, early on, so you can have influence on them.

Are you familiar with @radiofreefedi, the fantastic community radio for the Fediverse? All the awesome music and audio content created by those across the Fediverse is now simulcasted in video as another way to enjoy it.
If you've ever wanted to contribute to an open source project, but thought "I'm not technical" or "I don't program" but have experience with design Owncast would love to have you involved!
We're planning for future features and would love to have a designer involved early.
People say "Owncast needs polish", so maybe you can help make a real difference!
@owncast hello everyone would you like to invest or know more about my investment please Write me registration is free and payment is done after 12hours of investment....
Today is the three year anniversary of Owncast's first commit. I hoped a new release would be ready by "First Commit Day", but a little more time is needed. Thank you for your patience and support, here's to another three years!
Had a great time demoing #Owncast and learning about people's passions at Day 1 of #FediForum. If anybody has any questions after the demo, please say hi! Looking forward to Day 2 of @fediforum!
If you know of any #Fediverse related events (conferences, networking, demo opportunities) that would be a good fit please reach out and let us know. Even if you think we already know about them, it's likely we don't!
Going forward I want Owncast to be a larger part of the greater community, but I've been very disconnected from it, so I could use your help.
@owncast when I lived in China I was amazed by the quality of live streamed torrents. Seems like a great way to reduce bandwidth costs of steaming. Why aren't streaming torrents bigger here?
@owncast this looks cool, I will have a look at contributing in a couple of days when I’m home from holiday, I’m mainly a backend dev but also do some frontend React stuff too
@owncast@gabek Hey Gabe, web design not in my skill set but is "light theme for the UI" something that's on the radar? I really, really struggle to work with it as it is.
If you've been thinking about trying out #Owncast for the first time, October is a great time to do so! If you spin up a public Owncast instance during #Hacktoberfest you get an Owncast t-shirt!
@owncast Something tells me that it's not possible to send a t-shirt to Russia right now 🙂 But still, Owncast is a nice app. It was just a little disappointing that it doesn't support multiple users. But we ended streaming to the same instance with my friends anyway.
It's been fantastic meeting new people and engaging with those looking to make small, but mighty contributions to #Owncast during the first few days of #Hacktoberfest. I'd love if you could join us!
This year it's not just about code contributions, either. Creative work, design feedback, tutorials, videos, etc are all fantastic ways to help the project.
@owncast Thanks for the update. I've only heard bits and pieces about owncast from others on the fediverse in 500 characters or fewer. The video format was much easier to follow.
I currently has an Open Streaming Platform server, but now I'm considering swapping it out for owncast.
I see there's already an example .service file. I'll likely use that as a starting point & will offer to contribute back any setup/automation that I do. Automation is my jam 🙂
