Social Stream Ninja

📖 What is Social Stream Ninja?

A free, open-source tool that aggregates chat from multiple services — YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, Discord, and more — and displays the comments you pick as an OBS overlay. Since it runs in the browser, setup is lightweight, and it's easy to manage chat from multiple platforms or guest streams in one place. You can also use it to feature selected comments on screen. Because it's built around links you generate from the official site, you can start doing chat effects without setting up a dedicated server.

💡 When to Use It

Useful whenever chat gets split across multiple places — simulcasting on YouTube and Twitch, running alongside TikTok Live, or participation streams tied to a Discord community. Since you can pick viewer comments to display on screen, it's easier to pull topics for Q&A segments, polls, or casual chats with guests.

📋 Basic Info

🚀 How to Use

1. Step 1: On the Social Stream Ninja official site, check the supported services and OBS overlay features, and decide which platforms you'll use — YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, Discord, and so on.
2. Step 2: From the dashboard or each service's connection screen, add the comment sources you want to pull from for your stream, and load the chats you want to display.
3. Step 3: Add a browser source in OBS, paste in the overlay URL Social Stream Ninja generates, and adjust the size and position of the comment display.
4. Step 4: Run a test stream to confirm comments from multiple services are coming through, and set up a workflow where you pick out only the comments you want to show on screen.
