Which platform do you prefer for Live Chats with us?
Added 2020-09-06 16:13:39 +0000 UTCNot everyone is digging using Instagram for our live chats. Do you want to see a different platform used, and if so, which one?
Comments
Twitch :) You have the video posted automatically after the stream is done and you can see the Chat after.

2020-09-11 16:28:47 +0000 UTCI miss the IG lives all the time and you can’t see the questions in the replay. Plus there is always a lag on IG for me unfortunately-

2020-09-11 15:04:44 +0000 UTCI love Instagram but agree with someone else that watching the replays you don’t get to read the comments/questions and I find them hard to see anyway. For those who don’t have Instagram, maybe repost the whole videos on Patreon afterward?

2020-09-07 00:57:33 +0000 UTCMaybe do one on insta and one on something else?

2020-09-06 21:15:00 +0000 UTCMy only issue with IG is that I don’t get notifications when you’re live so I miss it. I could just be better about remembering when the lives are supposed to be.

2020-09-06 19:32:35 +0000 UTCI have used discord for years, if you decide to go down that route please feel free to reach out to me and I'd be happy to help you get set up
Nicole Birk
2020-09-06 19:14:38 +0000 UTCI don't use Instagram and don't have the space on my phone to download it, but I like the idea of a discord as you could have channels where the patrons could chat, get to know each other and become a community :) You could also give custom roles to everyone according to their Patreon tier, or anything else you like.

2020-09-06 19:12:52 +0000 UTCI’m a little biased though because I just converted the agency I work for (750 employees) over to Zoom and have been hosting/coordinating all the meetings while people learn so I have Zoom on the brain lol....

2020-09-06 18:40:59 +0000 UTCI’m starting to get the hang of Instagram, but omg Zoom would be AWESOME!!! It has all the extra features too, like hand raise, reactions... ability to send private message in-chat to host...
Jennifer Percopo
2020-09-06 18:38:56 +0000 UTCI am perfectly okay asking the questions here and waiting for the video later on patreon. I just don't have an Instagram account and have no desire to have one

2020-09-06 18:10:37 +0000 UTCFacebook live??? I’m fine with instagram but understand if it’s not working FB may be a better option!

2020-09-06 18:05:19 +0000 UTCI'm not sure exactly how or what it is however the chloesactuary uses something called slack. If you wanted to look into it. I'm OK with Instagram though, not sure if it matters allthat much but is very nice of you to take your patrons preferences into consideration. Just reminds us how wonderful you are 😉

2020-09-06 17:31:41 +0000 UTCYouTube if it can work for patreons only
Kristin Winchester
2020-09-06 17:19:55 +0000 UTCYouTube has 3 different options for live streaming- Public, Private and Unlisted. YouTube’s Private streaming allows sharing the event video to 50 different people at once (provided that they have active Google plus accounts). Private videos will not appear in any of the search results or the video recommendations. The YouTube live stream will be accessible to the invitees alone which is a much-needed feature for private events.

2020-09-06 17:09:08 +0000 UTCI don't have an issue with Instagram when watching live but when watching old / missed episodes I immediately wished it had the chat replay like YouTube has. Recordings would be much better when you can see the questions that were asked.

2020-09-06 17:08:23 +0000 UTCOther livestream apps you can require a password but I can only recall Twitch. I don’t think YouTube allows to approve subscribers so you can’t make patreon exclusive. Ha, Zoom would be interesting but how many will show their faces or even talk? 🤣

The same happened when I tried FB, it sent out to the general public (though I know you said not FB but just saying)

2020-09-06 16:40:46 +0000 UTCI'd also like youtube...but pretty much anything other than FB/IG works for us.
