I think PeerTube can do livestreaming like Twitch as well.

Any benefit to Owncast? First time seeing it.

@thefrankring

OwnCast is dedicated to livestreaming and has better chat support. The user experience is a lot closer to something like Twitch. You can try it out for example here: https://live.retrostrange.com
You can use Fediverse accounts like Mastodon to verify your identity on OwnCast.

PeerTube has no official chat (yet), but they do have a chat plugin.
