Owncast

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 I am not a designer, but I can provide feedback/suggestions, if that would be helpful? All in all, I don't think it looks bad.

Owncast

@AudraTran I appreciate the thought! Right now we're not lacking in general feedback, but are lacking in a way to turn opinions, thoughts, and future features into solid work that can be executed on. That requires somebody focusing on that aspect of the project. I hear "It's ugly" a lot, but I don't know what to do with that feedback. I want to change that.

@owncast I definitely don't think it's ugly. But I think some colors and especially fonts could be substituted for more modern ones.

I would adjust the main homepage to cater more to viewers than be almost entirely dedicated to streamers.

And I would make it so that streamed videos are embedded rather than opening a new window, like when someone posts a YT link on Mastodon.

I have more "actionable" feedback but I'm limited on characters. I can upload a short video.

It's a wonderful project.
