| What streaming tech / infrastructure do they use?
| q3k wrote:
| A bunch of custom stuff around industry and open standards,
| from camera to mixer to transcoder to CDN to browser code.

| If you didn't know they were entirely rendered in realtime by

| Not enough titty streamers in hot tubs. Twitch is now (since

| Those streams certainly receive less aggressive moderation.
