Official update for our community : We are not shutting down!
StreamElements is in conversation with an amazing partner aligned around one thing: working in the interest of creators and the community.
Your tools and data are safe.
We've secured funding while partner integration is underway, and pending creator payments will roll out over the coming weeks.
More information soon, i'm sure you’ll like it.

Gracias por confiar en nuestro trabajo 🌟
@maerinafox@lallo091 Es una de las alternativas que justo en este momento ando evaluando de hecho! Se ve muy prometedor https://t.co/72ZBqDGZTI, sólo toca aprender mucho 👀
StreamElements Creators:
1. Check your https://t.co/6YfX9vA6RB balance in the Revenue tab and withdraw everything.
2. Back up settings + overlays
@mrboost92 made a tool to download things, I haven't used it yet but seems legit. https://t.co/RoIXvfitWy
3. Consider alternatives
Just a reminder to reach out to your coders/widget creators and check their TOS before using any apps that automatically "convert" any widgets you have to another platform. At the end of the day artists still own the rights to their work/code and might not feel comfortable with this ~ at least not before they come up with real solutions.
@bunnita__@lallo091 Si podemos hacerlo! Solo nos falta probarlo en un stream real y ver que ande todo bien. O bueno, podíamos 🥹, ahora tendremos que reevaluar todo dependiendo de que suceda con StreamElements, pero está considerado en los planes 😼
Hola , este año junto con @ranol1_ hemos empezado a crear nuevas cosas para los streams , como la creación de widgets , chats , goals , etc...
Recientemente salió el rumor del "cierre de SE", crear widgets ha sido algo que siempre me ha gustado desde hace mucho y esta plataforma me ha parecido muy buena para hostear varios de ellos.
A pesar de que no llevemos tantos widgets como muchos otros, estamos viendo alternativas u otras herramientas para entregar un mejor trabajo y no quedarnos con una sola opción , eso si , no será algo rápido, estamos revisando varias plataformas que nos puedan ayudar e igual hasta el hosteo propio que sean compatible con la idea que tenemos en mente.
igual si tienen algunas alternativas o sugerencias donde podamos trabajar los widgets para seguir trayéndoles mas contenido del que hemos hecho , se los agradeceríamos mucho !!!
We are aware of the recent rumors about StreamElements closing and we’re still trying to process everything.
Creating widgets has been pretty much our full time job for the past couple of years and we poured so much time and effort into building a huge portfolio of products that relied on StreamElements. We are as frustrated as you are and honestly pretty scared about the future!
We are considering all possible already existing tools or even something a bit more exciting. Who knows, maybe this is the beginning of something new! Not sure what comes next but we hope StreamElements gives everyone a grace period to fully transition, which will gives us time to do the same! We also hope we get the same kindness from all our users because from now on, we will have to rework dozens and dozens of widgets and make them compatible with totally different systems.
We apologize in advance for any delays with finding the right alternative, re-releasing widgets and even replying to tickets. We will be doing our best to make this transition as easy as it can be and your support and patience will mean a lot 💜
We're also actively listening to suggestions on Discord so feel free to stop by!
RE: StreamElements
To get everyone on the same page, here's a breakdown on what's happening, because rumors always travel further and faster in a vacuum.
Earlier today, there was an initial rumor that StreamElements was laying off all staff and shutting down. I heard this secondhand from a trusted source, but, like any rumor, it was not confirmed; it was merely a starting point. (I personally require at least two independent sources to confirm a story, as individuals can make mistakes or misinterpret the facts, especially if there's a reason that might make it personal.)
Since then, this single source has repeated this story to everyone in his StreamElements Sponsorship Discord (not the official one), and as such, it has been shared as a rumor widely across streamer Twitter. Yes, he does work for StreamElements as a Creator Success Manager. So, he does have credibility. At the same time, I have attempted to get secondary confirmation from anyone at StreamElements - but have been unable to. Every person I have spoken to about this (creators, former SE staff, media people) has the same source... the person mentioned above.
Now that said, let's talk contributing factors:
1. StreamElements continues to be silent on the matter.
2. They have been slow to pay users in recent weeks.
3. They seem to have been removed from Twitch's Third Party sponsorship offers.
4. They have been soliciting donations to keep the service free.
5. They have had numerous layoffs over the last few years, and more have left of their own volition in the last few months.
On the other hand, it's unusual to simply shut down a service with hundreds of thousands of users without first becoming a paid service. Or maybe just shutting down part of the service and focusing wholly on the sponsorship side. Either way, it's unusual.
This entire thing is unusual. And while the rumors may end up being true, I don't feel confident saying that yet. As I said, my standard is at least two independent confirmations - more is better. I always prefer being right to being first.
That said, given the situation as presented, it may still be worthwhile to ensure any SEPay money is requested, and you may want to download your alerts (or move to an alternative, such as Streamlabs. Disclosure: I have a partnership with them - but an easy link to do so is attached below.)
If I learn more before StreamElements addresses it publicly themselves, I will share whatever facts I can confirm.
THIS WILL KILL REACTION CONTENT, MY CHANNEL AND OTHERS IF NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT THIS!!
ON YOUTUBE AND TWITCH AND I AM NOT JOKING! 🚫
This is getting absolutely ridiculous now. I have spoken with many other creators and it is not just me going through this.
One person at MarkScan is going around claiming to work for CrunchyRoll but they are based at a completely unrelated Indian company, striking and taking down channels on YouTube and Twitch.
Roughly 10 creators have been hit already and all have been streaming different stuff and none of it has violated Twitch's own policies, YouTubes or the law.
We know this for many reasons but one main one TWITCH AND YOUTUBE REMOVED THE STRIKES!
@TwitchUKI@TwitchUKI@Twitch WHAT THE F*** ARE YOU DOING TO HELP? You have let this person take down channels at will for the last week, fraudulently and have ignored every single creators emails but removed the strikes and allowed them to keep doing it? WHAT IS ACTUALLY GOING ON?!
I cannot stress how big this is. If this keeps happening I will stop doing all content related to anime.
But it might not stop there because the same company and person strikes channels for Taylor Swift related content.
This company, MarkScan needs to be blocked on these platforms. They are not directly affiliated with anyone they claim to be.
I just got striked AGAIN! someone else streamed a picture of an anime, no sound, and got striked for that!
So many smaller creators are reaching out to me to help and I can't even help because if Twitch doesn't block them and I can't get hold of them I can't even fully pursue it legally.
We are literally stuck.
So once again, it's up to you guys, no one is listening to us and this person is just destroying our lives.
Please spread this, help get it in front of as many eyes as possible.
This will destroy me and so many others if it doesn't stop.
We can't keep letting this automatic systems allow anyone to strike, takedown and remove channels without any human eyes ever looking at it.
Please, help 💔
insane Claude Code setup.
instead of asking it to "mek app" like a total normie, you first let it spin up 1m subagents to simulate 10¹² branches of civilization from 4000 BC recursively to emulate in which universe a specific version of your app is going to be most successful
