This week we’re joined by Eli Mallon, founder of Streamplace, a decentralized video streaming platform. In this episode we discuss the future of decentralized video streaming, the challenges of building a new platform, and how developers can leverage Streamplace’s tools. We also go into Atproto, the decentralized social media network that stream place is built on.
