I stream from Linux. I don't stream anything about Linux, I just happen to stream while also using Linux.. that being said it usually ends up being a handful of dedicated viewers so not super big or anything, but it's still fun. :) OBS works just fine, game capture works, everything just seems to work!
Yep.
Same for me.
I simply show what´s doing well on Linux, and have fun with that games on my favourite platform. Since most of my favorite games run out of the box I can`t even show how to get them running.
Last games I was streaming were Gwent (the Steam version), Satisfactory and Pioneers of Pagonia.
Tomorrow I want to do a retro special and show OpenTTD.
That seems to be the case with the majority of the streams I've seen, just folks havin fun with a few friends showing up now and then. I do like to check out the odd streamer I've never seen especially if it's a game I know really well. What games have you been streaming lately?
I mostly just stream raids in Final Fantasy XIV, but in the past I've streamed older JRPGs, Elden Ring, Dark Souls, basically anything I happen to be playing.
Not the same person, but I streamed Ark Survival Ascended a couple times on Linux.
I've found the experience is pretty painless.
That seems like the best scenario to me, not having to explictly state "I use (insert OS here)" makes it seem more natural as opposed to really preachy and forced.
