I've been a partner for 2 years and a caster for over 3, Twitch feels like high school all over again. Its all about the popular kids and who gets pushed forward on the front page. There isn't even a way for partnered casters to apply to be front page or part of the partner spotlight. The South Pax Panel was all but a joke, even during the Q&A a troll went on for almost 2 minutes straight just spitting out random garbage. I felt that the Twitch presence at South was laughable. These are just a few of my major complaints recently with Twitch after even taking almost 6 months off from casting a bit before South and now after. I also feel getting any sort of visibility is incredibly difficult for game casters but yet Twitch is pushing Creative or now Poker or silly things like TwitchPlaysPokemon. Which crashed so many chat servers during its hay day and yet still was being pushed down everyone's throat. Which obviously is detrimental to casters trying to actually talk to people while playing their favorite game. I absolutely love casting and have started back up again but Twitch at this point could never feel like a real full time job as not much seems very serious around here. Some people find that as a bonus I suppose but I'm not one of them.

There is no real incentive or encouragement from Twitch if you are a smaller/average partner. While I understand that you as a company make money from your big partners, you are not maximizing any efforts to help grow partners that are mid-sized. They are pretty much left to their own devices until they make it on their own while you collect the little dollars they make you.

I feel that Twitch needs to open up to supporting more Partners that are smaller. There are the few broadcasters everyone knows by name because Twitch does nothing but support them (no matter what they do), but smaller channels are left in the dust struggling to grow. The Partner Spotlight is great, but it only features a small amount of broadcasters. At the end of the day, Twitch and Partners are supposed to have this symbiotic relationship, but it seems that it's only that way if you're a massive broadcaster.

Recently I was talking about the twitch ranking system in the game directory and inside a certain game directory as "the highest viewed get the highest rank" \\I think this system is flawed at it's core,ENCOURAGES view botting,and HURTS small streams and does not allow them to flurrish in an enviourment that has an already established stream communities with a lot of viewers that just get richer and richer and keep growing and growing.\\I actually made a video about it and I stand behind my words and don't care much about the annonimity of this survay.\\As a matter of fact I would love this to be brought to the attention of people who matters.\\https://youtu.be/gszHRhh01Ps\\My english is not perfect,and my video quality is not the best,my internet speed is only 3mb upload,but I have been partner for over 2 years now and a well known member of the Diablo 3 community.\\Have a great day,and it is indeed nice that for the first time since I was partnered about 25 months ago(that's how old are my oldest subs) Twitch decided to ask her partnered streamers what do they think.. this is a fine innitiative.\\Moses_2265

nothing is new under the sun.
 
Snooping through partially downloaded torrent, and one interesting bit I found is Aegis, which is janny dashboard, located in safety.zip. Haven't looked much, but found some funny block reasons in src/core/gql-types/global.ts.
Code:
export enum EscalationReason {
  AnimalSexExploitation = "AnimalSexExploitation",
  ChildNudityOrUnderwear = "ChildNudityOrUnderwear",
  ChildSexExploitationOrSolicitation = "ChildSexExploitationOrSolicitation",
  ChildSexualAbuseMaterial = "ChildSexualAbuseMaterial",
  DeathOrMedicalEmergencyOnStream = "DeathOrMedicalEmergencyOnStream",
  ExtremeGraphicHarmToSelfOrOthers = "ExtremeGraphicHarmToSelfOrOthers",

They won't be able to compete with steam who has the majority of the marketshare, EA and those fucktards in Epic Games have tried and tragically failed, what makes them think they can do better and make them stand out?
Epic is probably the closest to actually competing with Valve but they are still living off daddy's Fortnite money. I don't know what Amazon is thinking, competing with Valve. Everyone hates Amazon.

I would be anal about how Enums are supposed to serialize to a fucking integer but whatever. I'm still laughing about all the Ruby they still use in their app (based on accounts from someone I know reviewing the leaks). Ruby is trash.
 
I caved and made an account very recently only so I could receive drops for the single online game I enjoy playing in my time off. I'm feeling pretty dumb right now. No nice things, ever.
If the drops made you happy for even 5 minutes, I say this was a fair trade off. We’ve all had our info compromised at one point or another anyway.
Still be pissed at Bezos, but don’t blame yourself. Happiness is important

Since there are a lot of comments about how lucrative this all seems.

PSA: There are over 8 million active twitch streamers, you need to be in the 0.05% to even make a living.

If you are not in the top 0.05% of anything else in your life, do not let this leak convince you to waste your energy pursuing a livestreaming career.

Funny enough, looking through the partner survey you see the reality for most streamers as the complain about making a living trying to stream.

Fuck no Epic Game Launcher is fucking worthless and the library and bare bone functionality, and suing other companies and talking shit from their autistic CEO.

Maybe don't quit your job and move into a field where you need to be in the top 0.005% percent to make minimum wage? Alternatively, you can go work for minimum wage and get that income consistently.

Some of the lines in this are kinda interesting.

>Viewers subscribe to my channel and pay you 5$ and what i get after this? 1 fucking 30! 1.30$

>the partners with the most subs get a higher cut of their sub money when i believe its the smaller casters who need the bigger cut as sometimes that is the make or break for continuing to pursue streaming as a career instead of 2.50 per sub maybe give 3.50 that would allow more casters to be able to afford to stream full time

So not only is Twitch's cut higher than initially thought, it's also higher on smaller streamers
