   I tried love streaming on PeerTube and according to my friends who tried to watch, the quality was horrible. We tested out three instances with no luck. I'm gonna wait some more and give them the time to fix it

   Very little of the content is really gaming. Most users and streams are focused on extreme alt-right ideology.

   False Comment about "alt-right" anything. It's an open streaming platform for all legal content, gaming being the primary content on the site.

   Kick vs Twitch Comments

   A streaming service is more than just a platform that reliably sends video from streamers to viewers. It tries to moderate content for enjoyment of audiences and keep them safe from dangerous contents. Kick was started to promote online gambling with video game streamers and that's where it's at. Do not go there for the few good channels such as Hikaru's chess it does have.

    Just keep in mind it is very China centric which is expanding to southeast asia and other countries. There are some interesting things on it.

    Same view as Facebook Gaming, i.e. Absolutely horrible encoding and streaming. Hard to use without account and incredibly slow and low quality. Please keep off Facebook if you care even one bit about a good streaming experience.
