It is frustrating that SPX wont stream these on youtube themselves. I think I counted 4 or 5 fake streams with a total of 1m viewers that were just bitcoin scams. Everyday astronaut and nasa spaceflight seemed to be the only ones with legit streams.

It's almost expected with Elon owning X. The platform may really have the ability to challenge Youtube for live video things. The infrastructure and dev capability is there. It may well reach the value that he paid for it....
I hope so. Seems like youtube is decaying is it goes for more of a tik-tok style approach and with loads of AI spam. Doubt Twitter will be any better on this though :-/
It seems to work great for live content, but doesn't seem to allow for rewatching. Hence people here in the comments linking to YouTube videos.
It does support re-watching:

You can also watch it - the same video stream - on SpaceX' site:

They streamed the first one on YT, but have since moved to Twitter
