@levelsio(@levelsio):📻 Made a Nullsoft SHOUTcast server at https://t.co/ezfSY9zJoo SHOUTcast was Winamp's own streaming platform and would let you create your own self-hosted radio stations You'd then submit it to their directory to which would get you listeners Around 2011 it reached its peak with 900,000 concurrent listeners with about 45,000 active radio stations Winamp had been acquired by AOL in 1999 for $80M and was essentially fully neglected since so it was kind of a miracle it kept going for so long But the tech is still there and you can host a server!
