A step-by-step guide to sharing Hulu movies with other users on Discord

Are you trying to stream Hulu for your friends on Discord? You can share your screen with others as long as you're using a computer. If you're having issues with a black screen, this may be due to copyright protections with the Hulu app on a mobile device. After adding your browser to your Discord games, you'll be able to broadcast Hulu to your server.
