What are your thoughts on the open source transport library SRT:
https://github.com/Haivision/srt/blob/master/docs/why-srt-was-created.md
which is integrated into OBS
https://obsproject.com/wiki/Streaming-With-SRT-Protocol
It has an open source server:
https://github.com/Edward-Wu/srt-live-server

See here you got into an "Open Source" Software which does not ensure "Users Freedom" as we mean "Free", but it is "For Free" as "Price Zero" with the only "Freedom 1 of a Free Software". :)
 
If not using an existing CDN service and expecting many viewers, it
would be helpful to have a network of servers. I do not know about
typical bandwidth in Bangladesh, but standard videobridge setup
(https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-videobridge) may be challenging to use
with many participants since all streams are relayed.

Surely bandwidth is an issue to setup or run your own video streaming service. You may use jitsi on their server and may ask them for greater audience support. Else you may raise some fund and setup and run scalable server.
 
Is there any open source CDN software approved by FSF? Found the
following for building own CDNs, using Nginx (http://nginx.org/) or
Apache Traffic Server (http://trafficserver.apache.org/) :

You may use these at this moment to serve your purpose.

This one is bad for user freedom.

With regards.
