The One-Way Nature of Mainstream Platforms

In this episode of the Independent Creator Podcast, I discuss what content creators and viewers want from live-streaming platforms. Highlighting the one-way nature of many platforms, where users are the product and platforms prioritize ad revenue and data collection. I explore decentralized platforms like Mastodon and PeerTube, which allow users to have more control over their content and the content they see. The host also discusses the challenges of running ads during live streams and the importance of platforms listening to the needs and suggestions of content creators and viewers.
