r/streamyourcare Guide
Welcome to r/streamyourcare!
A demand for accessible livestream intervention capabilities has presented itself. We hope to prevent patient neglect, abuse, and death by providing safe affordable livestream monitoring solutions.
Including but not limited to: privacy overlay commands, alarms/alert commands, community collaboration, and extensive interactive capabilities.
This community will provide a collection of free tools and experiences which offer viewers and creators safety and purpose through their interactions online. See User and Post Flair Guidelines here (also at the bottom of the thread).
Our Sub Exploitation Prevention Guidelines post is also worth a read before posting.
