What I find stupid is that people will keep using it after all the shit they are doing. I mean, it's twitch, you can live without it. And yet, people will accept this bullshit and keep going because the alternative of changing platform is just too bothersome for them. In the end, I'm starting to think we have the internet we deserve.

So many platforms are like this. I think it's because content creators their business tied into these systems.

If the viewers dry up they’ll stop being paid and leave.

It’s on every user to dump the platform.
