    Could it be because it is dog shit? Ad ridden thot farm that killed APIs and exploits people on both ends of the video.

      They expected pandemic like growth to continue. Instead they made an absurd amount of money and are going to tone it down, socialise a bit of losses to realign the graph to something they can bullshit investors with.

      (I was one of Unity’s 1800, so I know the feeling).

      No no, It just means the market is shifting, people are now un-interested in streaming. It has utterly nothing to do with Twitch being run into the ground by the out of touch decrees of management.

      Anyway, more firings for the workers and fluffier golden parachutes for company nobility.

      What’s the API ordeal? I don’t use Twitch but I’m curious.
