Oddbean new post about login | logout Cornychat is audio/text chatting with options for slides and a lot of customization. Hivetalk is audio/video/text but also has screen sharing. Both have zapping within the app and I think they both have a "follow all" option. I know cornychat does.
I've used both and am often in a cornychat with others. You should drop in some time. We (the same usual group I talk to in cornychat) occasionally use Hivetalk if we're wanting to show movies or whatever to each other.
If hivetalk does audio and all the other stuff. Why do you use corny chat? Is it better for audio only? 🤔
Honestly, I think I'm just more comfortable with corny. We do occasionally run into bugs in both but Vic is also almost always there to test and fix, etc.
Can you drop uploaded movie files or YouTube links into hivetalk to embed and sync watch? Or is it like an OBS thing? Maybe this is the Cytube clone I've been looking for 👀
I think it's more like an obs kinda thing. I haven't really used the video feature much myself. nostr:nprofile1qqsrx6ws5a3s3ys3l8zllwv3d4yen393kmkp4eg4l3akxxrlavpqw4cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7plgmrg and nostr:nprofile1qqsq08tj00hrmqz7y36csc02f5pgktn2x7q9lrd5t0uqgkleqqyev5qpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuvrcvd5xzapwvdhk6qg6waehxw309akkjmrhv96kk6t99ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5q3zamnwvaz7tmwdaehgunfdshxxctdzyhr4s may actually know more about using it to stream. But I'm also willing to bet Bitkarrot would be able to answer all of those questions since she built it. But I can't seem to tag her on amethyst.
this is very weird because today I seem to be dropping a lot of messages. I'll have log back into amethyst to see that is going on, its been a while since i've been on it. also my profile deets got accidentally wiped a few weeks back, possible side effect!
Using https://metadata.nostr.com to backup/restore your profile stuff at all? I make all my profile updates through that and they seem to spread to the relays better than other platforms/clients. Absolutely no idea how to restore the backup though from metadata 😅😂
#hivetalk is better for both audio and video. But, it has been around for only a month, the other audio spaces have been around a little longer so people are familiar with them. I created hivetalk as there were no video/screenshare spaces available on nostr before then. You can also set hivetalk to broadcast mode for larger audiences, there are also many other features you can explore
Nice, I'll have a proper look. Sorta looking for somewhere to have a community playlist of movie files, YouTube/archive.org full movie uploads. With sync watching in groups. Basically Cytube on nostr lol. Not sure anything does this🤔
@cloud fodder for tips on running video streams
Yes! I was trying to remember who it was. Lol. Thankye, ma'am.
