  • iamBrandonTV iamBrandon🏳️‍🌈 (@iamBrandonTV) reported

    Not finding a YouTube video by mistake from a white girl talking about why A day off twitch won’t work. 💀 Please have several seats.

  • pofoverflow PofBattousai (@pofoverflow) reported

    And NO... this isn't related to the recent twitch problems, I'd thought this month ago..but never made the step or courage to move it and do it

  • GlizzyRed_ TheWrightLegend (@GlizzyRed_) reported

    I feel twitch needs to create something to help promote your stream..

  • WallyGXW Wally (@WallyGXW) reported

    @xKokonutMilk Agreed, but the protest is supposed to spread awareness for the problem but I feel like they know, Twitch never publicly talks about any of their updates or fixes so why would they? but I also get why people would be upset too with this ****** hate raid bull crap.

  • duckiesvcks error 404 (@duckiesvcks) reported

    it’s gonna take a lot more then a day to get twitch to fix what’s happening and i think everyone is over reacting about lulu just wanting to do her job because she quite literally has a contract with twitch at the moment..

  • J_Hobz Jeff Hobson (@J_Hobz) reported

    - Let Twitch know you want them to listen to marginalized creators and fix what's been going on. Tweet @Twitch, use the hashtags #ADayOffTwitch and #TwitchDoBetter, vote on the UserVoice platform, and don't give them ad revenue today. - And most importantly, *listen* yourself 12/

  • shysuFPS shysu (@shysuFPS) reported

    if you think a day off twitch will do anything your delusional if you think this a twitch problem again your delusional

  • _PresidentJoe_ ジョー (@_PresidentJoe_) reported

    @PeachFPS tbh if twitch wanted to fix they ****, they would. it’s owned by one of the most successful companies rn so one day of no one streaming most likely won’t change **** for them up at Twitch HQ

  • kamenrider71 Justin Givens (@kamenrider71) reported

    Here's an update for flashback made in Japan coming to @Twitch @youtube But I decided to delayed in till early 2022 Can I have major problems with the In my apartment by the time I get it fixed it will be good but it will still be delayed You have a wonderful evening stay safe

  • Weeb_Mama WeebMama is here (@Weeb_Mama) reported

    A day off twitch is nothing but performative activism and a chance to give yourself a pat on the back and spit poison at people who dont agree with you then turn around and stream the next day. Twitch has its issues but if you don't like it... do something about it leave.

  • Finleyfooonfire Finleyfooonfire (@Finleyfooonfire) reported

    @TwoTonesx I wish it was but this day off twitch will do nothing unfortunately. Think of it like this, they don't stop getting money when people don't go on their site for a day, they'll still make the same. They might even make more today as they don't have the upcost of servers

  • Chaser_Damar 🐔 Chaser Damar 🐔 (@Chaser_Damar) reported

    Or 2. You could realise that this issue is a really ******* big one and get off your high horse about your contract and stand with those not streaming because if enough people do that @Twitch will realise what they stand to lose if they don't get their **** together.

  • AveryDotVPJ shark dog thing (@AveryDotVPJ) reported

    @TheRocketRalph won’t it just save Twitch money by putting less strain on the servers

  • defcantgame DefCantGame (@defcantgame) reported

    @1Girth @SeptmbeR_21st accounts. In addition, there's a good amount of bot/twitch tools documented, more to be added. and I am adding some scripts (python) to actively monitor for new bots, and taking suggestions (if people rather a website to report to instead of @github issue submitting)

  • misinformedmart Matthew (@misinformedmart) reported

    @brucegreene @Twitch #ADayOffTwitch should become a weekly thing until Twitch figures out a solution to this problem. I don't blame Twitch for this obviously, but they need to take the issue seriously and find a solution.

  • ColeEvyx Cole Evyx 🇨🇦 (@ColeEvyx) reported

    Should I stream on Youtube or Twitch? I'm questioning this so much lately especially with the hate raids and everything going on today. Problem is on youtube I have 13k subscribers and I'm not that entertaining. That might cost me dearly to fudge up my chnanel =/

  • Codester_remix Codester (@Codester_remix) reported

    @TheTeawrex I think the main issue is they are basically at the top of livestreamed content with most platforms under them just getting started and trying to implement the features twitch has already. This has made twitch lazy in the innovation department and they have stagnated.

  • Jetl23 Jose (@Jetl23) reported

    @ImFeanix @Cau7ioN_ @LuluLuvely Honestly wouldn't think of anyone as better or worse for being on Twitch or not today. A lot of people are doing this for internet points anyway and it won't solve the issue at hand, sadly.

  • YumpaTV YumpaTV (@YumpaTV) reported

    @Asmongold Youtube is like 2 steps away from taking over livestreaming: 1. Make the ui better to navigate like twitch. 2. Fix chat.

  • ShadowofEterna ShadowEterna (@ShadowofEterna) reported

    @ZmokeLive @gamerOwlie Twitch had picture in picture on mobile, but all of a sudden it just became yet another broken mobile feature on ios

  • ytrewq24068606 Terrytheterrifyingtyrant (@ytrewq24068606) reported

    if #ADayOffTwitch doesn't work out and Twitch still won't address the hate raids... Then everyone should do #AWeekOffTwitch next time. Should that not work out either, then finally do #AMonthOffTwitch in order to get the point to them. No views/revenue until change happens.

  • XsukysukyX Suky (@XsukysukyX) reported

    @LuluLuvely All I’m hearing is “I have a contract with twitch and do not wish to help marginalized creators against said company bc they pay me lots of money” you’re a joke bruh. Call it like it is you have no interest in the movement.

  • ITDynamicGaming Exaltedfool (@ITDynamicGaming) reported

    @Gloriiuh Personally, I'd like to see something like this organized at a mich later date for more than just a day. Get some large creators and more communities behind it. Work on advertisers to pull ads for a week. Really hit Twitch in their wallet. Then repeat until changes are made.

  • MetaFlaelli ❄🔥Metafron🔥❄ (@MetaFlaelli) reported

    Had 4-5 bots pop in and say **** that my filter caught while I was streaming. The bot problem on Twitch is so damn bad, even for the lower viewer streamers such as myself. It's ridiculous.

  • MrWichie Richie (@MrWichie) reported

    @WayneAlan11 @Twitch Okay? Let's say streamer has 20 mods and a mass bot of hundreds come into their chat, how the hack are they all meant to handle that much spam? They can't. And twitch should do more to help. And you are. You are making this #ADayOffTwitch thing out to be people bullying streamers

  • asticker4trying asticker4trying (@asticker4trying) reported

    @MetalGamerGeek I think twitch is going to get to that apex moment that mixer did, and have 1 of 2 choices. 1. Fix it 2. Do what mixer did. Cut and dry tbh.

  • AyyPlusGG Josh (@AyyPlusGG) reported

    Just so everyone knows: If you’re taking a stand because of HATE on Twitch but turn around and HATE on people that decided to stream today then you’re part of the issue. You can’t stand against something and take part in it at the same time Don’t be a hypocrite #dayofftwitch

  • quosmik 🍯 Sabryna 🍯 MIAMI IN 14 DAYS 🤪 (@quosmik) reported

    Taking the night off from work might stream later on Twitch though

  • iconicval_ Iconic (@iconicval_) reported

    @JakeSucky If Nickmercs joins yt twitch is in big trouble. He and his group basically control what popular game people play

  • maria___jameson maria (@maria___jameson) reported

    @blackstarbowie9 @Twitch Omg fr!! thought i was the only victim of this, my account got banned 2 days ago for a reason that wasn’t stated I tried contacting their service but got no response then someone referred me to the cyber_arker on Instagram he was the one who got my account back he can help you 2
