Facebook has been a source of pain and suffering for me for years. Just another reason to keep using TH-cam versus the anguish that exists within Facebook. I have a private group that is over 120,000 people and is pretty much dead right now. I am so glad I transitioned to YT years ago. I use the native Kajabi Community to host community discussion, but admittedly it is not terribly user-friendly.
Thanks for the update Luria. So we stream to our Church FB page and then others share it to several other groups in smaller communities around eastern Iowa that don’t have church’s close by. I was hoping that streaming to our page we could still get the job done because we’re not streaming directly to the group. I hope that makes sense.😅
I have found Facebook to be confounding, dysfunctional, oppressive, and insufferable for many years now, and I agree that TH-cam really needs to step up their community engagement offerings.
Thanks for doing this video Luria. I have seen the info and really need even more clarity, but seems that will come as we get closer to the April date? I'm with you about YT creating more community offerings. That would be amazing. My private FB group... One of my daily posts in the group was taken down by FB because I used the words "share" a photo of your animals in the comments. What??? this is my PRIVATE FB group. how dare they do that!!! I was furious to say the least and now need to try to word my "asks" and reminders with totally different wording. Thanks for always keeping us (your community) up to date with the latest. 😻🐶
I have a question for you I tried and was able to stream to a facebook group from restream as you described but I could not get it to stream to more than one group at a time because they use the same persistent stream key. Am I doing something wrong or is there a work around?
The longer I think about it, the more convinced I am that Facebook is playing an increasingly minor role in professional video communication. Young people are massively ignoring Facebook, even in Europe. It's all about Instagram and TikTok now. So, maybe Instagram offers more opportunities with Mark's blessing... LinkedIn continues to focus on live streaming. TH-cam is also a more suitable platform where indeed more possibilities for community building are welcome.
They're shooting themselves in the foot - as FB groups is the ONLY reason people still go to FB over other apps. They are literally killing themselves by doing this !!! AHHHH! Thanks for making this video
True! And if you're interested, here's the video that explains how to go live in your group in the future: th-cam.com/video/XVHKglyOp74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=94XF9SbgigAZI3Hj 👍

I hear you. I have lost 4 FB accounts and 2 pages adn 1 group of 120000 - with no way to get back in or retrieve or take back from the hacker. GRRRRRR
Thank you for always looking out for your community.
Great breakdown Luria. Also, did not know you were on Nebula - another reason to subscribe! PS Loved the Kali and Abbey overlays during this video!
I know, the Magical Mr. Paul Dixon at it again!! ;)

So what did you end up doing? Are you no longer streaming? Using Facebook I mean. Like within your Facebook page.

Yes it's been getting worse and worse...

And yet they say they cannot police hate speech, bullying and sexual images to teens. SMH
Here's an update that explains how to go live in your groups under the new rules: th-cam.com/video/XVHKglyOp74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=94XF9SbgigAZI3Hj
Is this for streaming to a Group and not a Facebook Page? Or streaming all together to anything in/on Facebook?
This is for Facebook Groups.
Ohhh so we will still be able to stream to our FN pages, but not in a group?@@LiveStreamingPros
But I we use RTMP on Facebook will work? Not necessary instaling the ECAMM API.
los comentarios ya no van funcional ella dijo en que unos use RTMP con los grupos
Yes, that will work - Luria shows you how to do that here: th-cam.com/video/XVHKglyOp74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=94XF9SbgigAZI3Hj
All youtube gotta do is make some sort of group functionality like discord or something, and is game over for all the other social medias lol

Each target will need its own stream key.
Luria.... thanks so glad I have never been on FB.
😜
I can’t find your video on the RTMP function breaking it down. Can you post the link?
That's coming soon! 👍

Do we have any updates regarding this?
Yes, and you can check that out here: th-cam.com/video/XVHKglyOp74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=94XF9SbgigAZI3Hj 👍
Thank you!
I remember FB groups from the '00s ... yeah, putting their own nails in their own coffin. Lovely to watch.
They're shooting themselves in the foot - as FB groups is the ONLY reason people still go to FB over other apps. They are literally killing themselves by doing this !!! AHHHH! Thanks for making this video
Glad the video was helpful! Facebook does make some weird decisions.
Yes- but they DO NOT want you to have a problem with whether or not that actually happens!
Who knows what they are thinking. 🤭
What?! What!? What!!
faaaaark!!!! I'm SOOOOO mad at FB for this! And they wonder why everyone loves tiktok better.
It's a strange decision, for sure!
I love FB. I stream other places as well but they don't support the comments etc. 😊
True! And if you're interested, here's the video that explains how to go live in your group in the future: th-cam.com/video/XVHKglyOp74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=94XF9SbgigAZI3Hj 👍
It's gonna be like Instagram. 😢 I can't really to flip over to Instagram to see the comments.
Have you tried using a second device to monitor comments?
OBS Studio
👍
So will we still be able to go live using the go live option?
Yes
Here's an updated video that explains the process: th-cam.com/video/XVHKglyOp74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=94XF9SbgigAZI3Hj
