I finally went ahead and set up an account over at https://livestream.com/.
I managed to get the "YouTube creator" software installed on my PC, and while I can see my webcam preview perfectly fine—which is a relief, honestly—I am hitting a bit of a wall. There isn’t any sign of a URL or a specific address anywhere that shows where the feed is actually being broadcast in a web browser.
I have been going absolutely out of my mind searching through the menus, just trying to find a single link or address that I could send over to my friends so they can actually tune in to the stream.
Does anyone happen to know what my next move should be?

First, you’ve got to go into the menu to set up a brand-new "event," and once that's done, you'll be handed the link

I actually set this up quite a while ago—and when I pull up the event page in my browser, it clearly states event started—but absolutely nothing is being displayed
You can verify what I'm seeing right here https://livestream.com/accounts/4376972/events/4199429
And just to be clear, I have currently toggled the broadcast to go live

What does it say right there under your status on the bottom left?

I am not entirely certain if you are referring to the toolbar at the bottom of the screen—the one where it says perfect streaming

So, if everything’s working correctly, does the platform give you an option to save the broadcast once you wrap up the stream? I think there's supposed to be a "notify followers" toggle somewhere in that menu

By the way, I suspect the software will probably get pretty annoying and start bugging you if you don't install it and run it with admin privileges

Once I wrap up my stream, nothing pops up—it just shuts down completely without offering any follow-up options.

Good grief, I just cannot get this thing to function properly.
Does anyone happen to know of any alternative software that handles this similarly?
