Not likely, as that would be a complex undertaking and require such a increase in compute resources that volunteer instances would be priced out and forced monetization features would be needed to keep the system alfoat.

Eek. Okay let's not. Sorry if I came across as entitled - I really don't know much about running a website.
That's all right mate. People don't realise the complexity of video and the resources it takes to mass stream or broadcast.
No.
Better use Peertube for live streaming video. :-)
Aha thanks for mentioning it. I did not know Peertube existed.
Welcome ! ;-)
Here are recordings of good concerts that were broadcast live on peertube : https://video.liveitlive.show/w/p/rmcDbHpUcgGAayjBWdrnnd
(We had a live chat as well, they built a really nice platform. π₯°)
wait, reddit used to have livestreaming? How did I not know this?
Yes.
I realize it wasn't cost effective but I also feel it didn't get a fair shake.
They could have asked us to pay a subscription or something but no...they just reduced visibility and later completely got rid of it.
You would only see it in the official app or on the new Reddit site I think. I never saw it in Apollo or old Reddit, I saw them a few times because a co-worker used new Reddit for some reason and would occasionally have somebody playing ukulele live in his feed
There's no youtube competitor because no one can afford it.
