## Considerations
At the moment, this project is mostly intended to be run in a docker compose context alongside an existing owncast installation, because that matches my deployment. If there's interest in updating this project to run standalone, this can probably be done, I just didn't want to spend the effort on it yet without any interest.

Becauase the permissions on the Owncast hls folder are restrictive, it's easiest if you force both the `owncast` and `owncast-clipper` containers to run as the same user. If your Owncast instance already exists and you haven't been running it as a specific user already, you may need to `chown` your owncast directory to the new service user.
