   I'm not sure anybody really used it, since it was more or less just a quick convenience for people, but:

   The Owncast Directory Roku app will be removed in January 2024 since Roku is removing the specific platform used to put this little application together. There are no plans to rewrite it. Sorry for any inconvenience.

     @blogoklahoma Yup! I've built multiple Brightscript/Scenegraph apps in the past, so I could write something custom, but this specific Owncast directory app was never meant to be a a big deal. But who knows, maybe I'll just feel like working on it again one day!

     @owncast Did you use the "Direct Publisher" option?

     Yep, in the same boat here. I'm waiting to see if a client wants to retire their Roku channel in January or have me rebuild it. I was rather surprised by the announcement by Roku yesterday.

     I've built a channel before, so I'm reviewing the Direct Publisher to SDK Conversion Guide to see if I can do without building from scratch: https://developer.roku.com/docs/direct-publisher/rdp-sdk-coversion-guide.md?lid=j5kuuahr3e57
