SideStream

Sync YouTube, Netflix, and Prime Video playback peer to peer using a Telegram chat for connection setup.

Watch together without moving your conversation to another chat service. SideStream uses a Telegram Web conversation selected by you to exchange a short-lived WebRTC invitation and answer. Once connected, play, pause, seek, and drift-correction commands travel directly between the two browsers through an encrypted WebRTC DataChannel. - Works with All Streaming platforms - No SideStream account - No SideStream chat or media server - Does not stream, capture, decrypt, or redistribute video - Requires each participant to use their own streaming account - Reads only SideStream `/ss1:` protocol messages after explicit permission Direct peer connections can be blocked by some corporate, mobile, or carrier-grade networks. SideStream currently reports these failures clearly; a shared TURN fallback is not included in this release. SideStream is not affiliated with or endorsed by Any streaming platforms Telegram, Google, or Cloudflare.
