Oh, and I planned on the self-hosted route instead of a SaaS solution because the conference doesn't have much money (and my personal budget is tight), so I'd imagine paying for the VPS just for the 3 days of the conference shouldn't be too expensive and is just a one time cost. The solution doesn't need to be perfect (i.e. streaming to thousands of people across the globe w/o any latency/issues) but I just don't want it to be terrible 😅 (worst case someone should be able to just view the stream of it via YT)
I also recognize that this is probably a different style of professionally audio but with your collective experience of running peertube, (amazingly) live stream of Brent walking around conferences, etc. thought that you all might have a few pointers 🙃 (completely understand if the answer is IDK though)

Amazing content as always 😁
I also wanted to ask your opinion (since you all do audio professionally and regularly self-host things) on what kind of setup you would recommend for live streaming an online conference? I'll be helping out with CarolinaCon ( https://carolinacon.org/ ) this year ( running the infra: https://github.com/carolinacon/infra ), and I'd planned on doing Jitsi (since I've already got IaC for it: https://gitlab.com/elreydetoda-infra/iac/misc/-/tree/master/apps/jitsi ) but didn't know if you'd recommend something else.
High level my though process was:
1. Live stream to YT during conf
2. Manage jitsi "speaking" room participants to all be force muted except speaker during presentation
3. (Optional) Allowing a live Q&A from participants after presentation where they can unmute and ask questions
4. Have other Jitsi rooms for hallway track ( maybe try to revive this project w/AI: https://github.com/capnmidnight/Calla ), speaker onboarding prep, etc.
If you think that's too much I could always do a view-only stream of the speaker's presentation, but thought it would be cool to have live audience interaction.
Thanks for you time and talents ahead of time ♥️
