I wrote a little about why in the world it was worth the hassle of hosting a livestream for my wedding, when Twitch/IG Live/etc are things: https://steele.blue/indieweb-wedding-livestream/
A huge thanks to @gabek for helping setup the streaming infrastructure with his Owncast project. I'll be blogging about it soon!
Hey, I'm getting married today!

Huh, does Mastodon really not have DMs? Not sure how I’ve been on here for years and just now noticing?
