Owncast Self Promotion Allowed? (beehaw.org)

Seeing folks give season greetings to Linix gamers made me wonder if self promotion is allowed here?

I, as well as a few other Linux gamers, stream to our Owncasts, which have Federation connectivity, but wondering if we should be posting here when we go live on Owncast to spread the word. If that's ok?

To think of a few, Samsai, Hatnix, Hamishptb, and myself only stream to our own private Owncasts.

Again you can follow folks through federation, or get desktop notifications on go live, but I personally like the Firefox Owncast Extension.

Either way, Happy Holidays or even just a happy regular day to everyone!

Might be worth making a dedicated Lemmy community for "going live" style posts, otherwise there's a risk it could flood the community. Or worse, people would second guess themselves wondering if they were "worthy" to post such an announcement.

It's a fair point, but I don't think I'm worthy, hence why I asked. Lol

i'm on beehaw and they don't just create communities, hence why I asked here. Seems like I'm getting a number if uovotes, so not sure if others are interested in my question or woukd like to see folks posting when they go live here. Any and all thoughts are appreciated.

Obviously wondering mod and communities thoughts as well. This is all of our space imo.
