I'm considering it, and yet... considering not to. Like, if I'm travelling, I could put up a pngtuber, and run a light game. But also... Life before stream, amiright?

Have you used your SD for streaming to another platform? Was it pretty feasible? What should I consider dialing in? =3=

I haven't tried it but considering the weak CPU it might not be a pleasant experience.

But if you want to try it OBS is available in the software store and should at least work in desktop mode. Probably not in gaming mode.

Edit: Actually, I did something similar. I played Dungeons and Dragons in the browser and chatting through Discord with my friends. I recorded the sessions with OBS and at least that worked fine.
