A number of people have asked recently if there is livestreaming on the Fediverse.

Yes, there is!

The Fediverse has a dedicated livestreaming platform called @owncast. You can follow OwnCast accounts from Mastodon etc and you will see posts from the accounts in your timeline when they start streaming.

Owncast has a built-in Twitch-style chat system which you can use either anonymously without logging in, or with an account from Mastodon etc.
