I'm not gonna lie, I enjoyed streaming to Facebook. But unfortunately I'm most likely gonna have to bring it to an end. Simply due to quality issues. It's a shame because as a platform, Facebook is pretty amazing. I love the way the streams work, the way the schedules are handled, the idea of creating a series (that you can force to watch in a certain order), etc. There's s lot of potential here. But unfortunately for the gaming streams, the quality is just... Bad. Streaming on YouTube at an identical bitrate produced a much higher quality stream (albeit not perfect, but turns out my internet can handle more than what Facebook said it could, so I can increase the bitrate for higher quality). I'm on hiatus ATM as streams just haven't been producing enjoyment or fulfilment for me, at least recently. So I need to get to the bottom of what's causing that before I come back. Make sure you stay safe during this pandemic however.
