Where it surfaced on Hacker News
2026-10-25
“Adjacent to OBS, I want to give an unsolicited shoutout to VDO.ninja. It's a very lightweight way to push low latency video between devices via the browser. I've used it to turn my phone into a webcam, to jointly watch movies remotely (with simultaneous voice chat included), to make a multi-person video call, to stream my phone's screen to my desktop, etc All kinds of cool uses.”
