Chat and Communication

Can we build in real time communication using NodeBB? I'm thinking if you can find a way to sync up the time of the comments and the time of the live stream, you could keep everything in sync with something like Influx.

So it looks like nodebb costs money and I have implemented a realtime chat before. https://github.com/GRVYDEV/realtime-chat-server and https://github.com/GRVYDEV/realtime-chat-client so I would look into doing this through our own solution. Ideally we would use elixir since it is IMO the best tech for doing real-time chat however I decided to forgo that for now since it is a bit more complex to deploy

NodeBB is GPL3 and completely OSS.

My concern is ability to scale, API, and moderation abilities. Think 20,000+ users.

Elixir phoenix can handle 2mil+ websocket connections on 1 server so scale wont be an issue :)

Also checkout this repo https://github.com/Glimesh/glimesh.tv They are using elixir for a full streaming site frontend and have implemented moderation and bans

I agree! I was more referring to a mature project with a full fledge API for integration. I am going to likely use NodeBB and perform an integration with https://github.com/tsugiproject/tsugi but I will be interested in seeing what you can come up with.
