Yeah, few people know how bad the Mouse fucked up copyright law in the country just so they could keep Mickey out of the collective commons. I hope their empire burns around them.

Watching streamers below 10k and i'm barely getting any midstream ads at all. As soon as you cross that threshold however, they literally lube up a strap-on with ads and come after you.
IIRC from yesterday, once you get to 8pm eastern that's when the primetime algorithms kick in and it gets worse across the board.

Some of these streamers that signed a contract, have to play ads now. I'll bet money Shroud has a clause in his contract.

Twitch partner ItsHafu triples her salary by playing ads
ItsHafu tripled her salary when Twitch handed her a revised partner contract which stipulates she must play ads

I saw that, but I think it means stuff like OWL has their own ads as part of their broadcast. There is nothing Twitch can do about them.

You know what my favorite part of all this is? These devious fuckers put a timer or something on whether or not the pop out links work. If you click the name of the game under your streamers name it used to create a popout of the current channel you were watching and take you to the stream browsing page for said game. Now, at least half the time (and I suspect its based on whether or not your entry ad timer has expired or not) it simply closes the stream when you do this with no popout, so if you go back to the stream you get another ad.

I think the logic for streamers is that while it is clear and always has been clear than even modest streamers (like around 100 viewers) can make significant money by running ads, it also make viewers change stream and, as such, it is seen as something that stifles growth. And the streamer mantra is growth > *. Now, if the eco system changes so that every stream is running ads, whether the streamer wants it or not, it makes a lot of sense for streamers to make deals and take control of the timing of the ad breaks. It makes their stream better than those who have ads at random times and it makes them a lot more money.

Maybe I'll have a successful job, a good marriage, four kids that I help truck around everywhere. Maybe when my wife wants to watch dumb shit on the TV or go to bed at 9pm (but has to have me with her) I'll throw on Twitch because I like games more than most movies or shows.
Suuuuuper queer, I know.

I mean it's kinda queer. We'll call it queer light, or maybe queer adjacent? Diet Queer?

The irony of this statement is baffling. Considering where its posted and how much time you spend there.

My time spent is for good cause though. I'm a constant reminder to you troubled men that you are better than wasting your lives away with this bullshit. I take great pride in the work that I do.
