Chose YouTube Live
They didn't have TikTok Live or Twitch, but those would be, I think, the best examples of competitors. Many other platforms have channel points; they have hosting/raid features that allow people to get discovered more easily. YouTube Live feels very behind the times with the …

If you have a preexisting community somewhere (a newsletter for example) and you want to interact with them, YouTube Live is a great tool to do that. In my experience, a Live is great to make announcement, discuss topic or even make interviews if you integrate it with Zoom.
I guess it's not as useful if you haven't build a community yet, since people are not going to show up on your live if they don't know that you exist.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • It could have options of studio like a oneline platform of restream of fb live to help make multi people connect, tickers etc
  • There should be options of virtual backdrops and faceless live streams with other videos or images via mobile
  • It could make resharing content a little easier to more platforms and also improve the auto edits into bite sized content

It provides a lot of tools, but in order to be a 10 it should be a little bit more "visually friendly". Also it contains so many options all at once that it can be overwhelming. Other than that, it's a great software for your business/personal project.
