The Experience of Three Weeks of Riverside


Listen Later

Josh spends three weeks putting Riverside's mobile app through its paces for recording and live streaming, and shares the good, the bad, and the frustrating. He digs into a missing live chat feature, an ongoing podcast hosting headache, and mixed results from Riverside's AI tools.

Topics covered:

  • First impressions of Riverside's mobile app for live streaming
  • The missing stream chat visibility issue and why it matters for live shows
  • Ongoing podcast hosting connection problems with Apple Podcasts and YouTube
  • Browser compatibility limits on the Riverside dashboard
  • Text-based editing strengths and timeline selection limits
  • AI-generated edits, titles, and thumbnails, what worked and what didn't
  • Comparing Riverside's broad feature approach to more focused tools like Transistor
  • What Josh plans to do if the hosting issue isn't resolved by the end of the week
