I reviewed the new Monetized Streamer Agreement from #Twitch. There's some significant changes to how the Partner program works, and some significant drawbacks for creators.

So- Let’s take a minute to talk about Twitch's new Monetized Streamer Agreement.

@Modest_ralts That is honestly extremely appealing. Twitch basically wants 3 minutes of unskippable ads ever 30-60 minutes. And being able to edit without deleting is really nice when needed

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

So, uh, how's YouTube streaming these days?

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@Modest_ralts Well both sides tbh. I know the content you watch is pretty successful but Speedrunning community stuff is pretty absent still

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@wooferzfg Yeah having the ability to seek a live stream is by far my favorite feature of TY. Super good for live presentations as well as just wanting to review something without making a clip

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@CryZe107 Oh apparently YT does have a Live category in the directory, but a little weird it's not front page. I guess it's just really low value for YT

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@CryZe107 In the directory, the shorts doesn't show the name or logo, it only shows the video name.

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@CryZe107 I think it's in the directory it doesn't show. So you don't know until you view it

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@CryZe107 So I've heard but tbh from a viewer I hate shorts, so I've never really understood that. I guess I truly am not part of the TikTok generation. One of my problems with shorts is they don't say who made them, so it's like this weird YouTube ownership thing

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@MitoRequiem Lmao, thanks. I mostly headed things in 3.0-5.0, but I've mostly retired since then. Idk maybe I'll come back if I'm feeling inspired but it was a lot of work and I wanted to finish Metroid Subversion

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@CryZe107 One problem I've personally had is I would discovery of streams to be rough. Like I don't think there's a like stream directory?

[TestRunner @Test_Runner]

@MitoRequiem Lol, I'm pretty inactive on Twitter these days but I still stream and use discord

[Games Done Quick @GamesDoneQuick]
