First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

I'm out of the loop on Twitch. Not a big user of it, other than watching a friend occasionally. What's going on there?

Some advertising restrictions that would've been a nightmare for many streams that bake ads into their video, eg events like agdq as well, not just individuals.

But did twitch not back down, or have I been bamboozled by lip service again?

Reddit is dying? Since when?

Since they bought Alien Blue in my opinion, but now they made a announcement to change completely ridiculous prices for api 12k for 50M pulls (166 usd is the norm for that) they efficiently kill third party apps and probably a lot of community bots.

(for better understanding, Apollo (a third party ios app) has about 7 Billion pulls per month with a user average of 344 per day, wich would cost 2,50 usd per user per Month, totaling 20 Million a year, it goes without saying that this is completely and utterly ridiculous)
