Big fan of FTL also, it is a shame that it was orphaned. In a world where Mixer lives on I could see FTL being a lot more places. ftl-sdk was nice to work with

Big fan of FTL also, it is a shame that it was orphaned. In a world where Mixer lives on I could see FTL being a lot more places. ftl-sdk was nice to work with since it was just a single C library, and only concerned itself with streaming client/server. The way I see it WebRTC is the best way forward to enable people to build interesting things. I was so excited to itemize all the use cases that would be added to OBS by merging WebRTC support. I also wrote a little bit about 'Why WebRTC' https://pion.ly/blog/why-webrtc/ https://pion.ly/blog/why-webrtc/. The big advantage WebRTC has over FTL is that is does more. Broadcast is a small part of WebRTC. I think WebRTC's superpower is that it can be used for so many different use cases and industries. Even if another protocol is better at a single use case, it is hard to beat the breadth of WebRTC. WebRTC isn't without its issues. I think that is fixed by better education + more implementations and owners. We shall see what the future holds :)
