In plain words

Lightspeed is an open source streaming tool that captures video from OBS and delivers it with subsecond latency. It runs on your own servers rather than relying on external services. The software is designed for developers and broadcasters who need to stream with minimal delay, such as for live gaming, remote presentations, or interactive applications. Being self-hosted and open source, users maintain full control over their streaming infrastructure.

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
