I am hoping this space improves, I wanted to cast video to watch some stuff with friends last year and the software to accomplish this now is both really heavy (does EVERY part of the process need to run http server?) and convoluted.

We ended up just doing a discord screen share, which evaded all the tunnelling/transcoding/etc issues which made us give up on WebRTC.

What software did you try and use last year?

Can you try Broadcast Box. If that is still too heavy, what could I do to make it better?

Around last year I was using some custom plugins for OBS, I haven't used Broadcast Box but I can pick it up to try sometime later.

I haven't picked it up yet to see whether it's complex enough to really need it but it has the same pain point a few priors did--being yet another service which I must configure via the browser and so it has to run an entire frontend for doing that rather than being able to do config files.
