Nisanji already started. Now it's just a matter of time.
For those who are unaware, Twitch is planning to do some radical changes in the platform. The small vtubers who stream there will be heavily impacted, so you can expect not just them, but twitch normies as well and probably some giant ones might migrate to other platforms as well.
>"So, what's gonna change?"
The most important changes will be:
>Twitch staff is considering paring back the revenue cut of channel subscriptions granted to the top echelon of streamers in its so-called partnerships program to 50%, from 70%.
>More burocracy to become a partner(monetization).
> And the worst of all: Twitch may offer to release partners from exclusivity restrictions, allowing them to stream on Google’s YouTube or Facebook.
So, this last part means that major vtuber companies, may now move to other platforms, like a stampede. Meaning Hololive vtubers who are only active on Youtube, for example, may be completely crushed, because it will not be 1 or 2 vtubers streaming over them anymore, it will be 20 or 30.
The ones who does 2k while streaming will be the first to go, but the ones who retain a massive amount of viewers probably won't be affected that much.
Do your oishi took a piss at the unicorns or the parasocial friendos? Too bad. Probably only the ones who have loyal subs will remain.
>Can this be a "nothingburger?"
Yes, because Twitch may give up in those changes, or the companies can just accept the cut quietly, while remaining "friendly friendo" by not streaming in multiple platforms.
