YouTube Chat
by SteveKunG
YouTube Chat lets a player read a live stream's chat from inside the game, with display options for the messages shown.
What it does
The mod pulls messages from a YouTube live stream into the in-game chat, so a player can follow the broadcast while playing. Only the client needs it, and the server is not involved. Builds exist for Fabric and Forge, covering 1.18.2 – 1.19.3, released under the Apache License 2.0 as open source.
