TinyIce: Single-binary Icecast2-compatible server (auto-HTTPS, multi-tenant)

Re: TinyIce: Single-binary Icecast2-compatible server (auto-HTTPS, multi-tenant)
#32I tried streaming with icecast2 during pandemic and always got dropped connections in tens of minutes. It drove me mad. And it's impossible to detect in advance, receivers skip for seconds till new connection is made. From packet captures it appears as dropped ack packets. It was https so copyright filters are unlikely.
Are there different solutions, different protocols, ideally supported by browser in some simple manner? Is streaming over websocket possible?

I am planning to add other restreaming options such as RTMP or HLS. So far, my test stream is running for more than 10h and did not have a single dropout.

#34Very cool project!
When I was still working at a large corporation, I built an internal "social" radio station using Icecast2. I'd broadcast my favorite music like Pink Floyd and Radiohead to my coworkers via a simple Rails web app, and we'd chat about music, work, and everything in between on the same web app. That was a long time ago, and I no longer have that environment (a big company with lots of similar-minded young people), but live-streaming music with friends will always be a soft spot in my heart.

#35I've added several improvements over the last couple of days.
