You don't have to use these though, all of OwnCast's features are available through the web.

Yes, PeerTube is another one too! 👍

I don't think PeerTube has official chat yet though? It requires a third party plugin?

@FediTips @crossgolf_rebel This is true, but to be fair the developer of this plugin, John Livingston, works closely with the PeerTube developers, and PeerTube has an excellent one-click mechanism for installing plugins. It's all-but-official and integrates very well with PeerTube, to say the least.
