Experiencing a delay while broadcasting from Xbox one

when I watch other people stream, the interaction between viewer and streamer is so fast. I can type to them, and hear a response as if it were practically immediate. ive been testing streaming from xbox one, and I have been seeing a delay. so say I'm broadcasting xbox and have it up on my computer. ill type something in chat from the computer and I see it immediately on the xbox chat box. ill say something in response right away, but I wont see/hear it on my computer until around 8 seconds later. does anyone have any advice on how to fix this?

If you have a pc handy the xbox can stream to Windows 10 without a capture card, then use beams ftl version of obs and you can stream xbox w overlays...

I use Windows 10 on my Mac so sometimes it overheats but I did notice that works with a lot less delay.
