Nginx-rtmp-module: Anyone know of projects using this module in production?

This is a question, not an issue. I figured it was probably better posting this here than on Stackoverflow, but sorry if it's causing noise.

I've been playing around with this module as a proof-of-concept for a serious startup pitch, and I'm very happy with it, it seems stable and meets most of my technical requirements. It's also a lot easier for me to figure out TCO and scalability on it compared with most commercial streaming solutions. But before I pull the trigger on this, I was just wondering - does anyone know of any projects or sites that already built successful platforms on this module?

Facebook uses a fork of this project for it's live streaming. See https://code.facebook.com/posts/1653074404941839/under-the-hood-broadcasting-live-video-to-millions/

I use it at my current job, for internal live streams only, for audiences from a few viewers up to a few thousands, with a flow like:

OBS ---> nginx-rtmp <--- edge caching web proxy (pulling HLS fragments)
              |
              | ---> nginx-rtmp replication accross regions (pushed)

• Working pretty smoothly, a few A/V desync we need to figure out
• Tried to put keepalived in front but experienced big drops we need to troubleshoot
  EDIT:
• The authentication using a third-party app (in-house) is really handy
• The ability to redirect a stream locally so that the public facing name is different from the stream key is really useful as well
