🍌 DRALE

Twitch doesn't use the view count for the ads. They process after stream the impressions ads, and check all the ad views for legitimacy to provide ad revenue to the streamer. This processing isn't done in real time live view count. Twitch mentioned this when views dropped during ads in 2023.

I am not surprised because of the repeat complaints of suddenly being forced to verify in all streamer chats despite streamer verifying it is not turned on.
I suspected it to be the end goal as the max exception setting is 6 months. No new account could chat anywhere for 6 months anyways.

Twitch plans to force all users to verify phone number despite streamer's settings. According to Reddit comment feedback from Twitch Support.

Twitch Creators can now run their own 35% Shared Discount Promotion on 5+ Gift Subs for 70 hours (across seven streams) at any time of the year.

Lower affiliate requirements is rolling out
Streamers are seeing it in their dashboard

I think that gap is partly money motivated, such as partners having more stats to become one and typically more subs coming in, therefore they use to get a better split.
Those gaps have faded. Plus Program let's even affiliates earn a higher split if you have enough subscribers for period of time

Dan said one of the reasons affiliate has requirements in the first place was to prevent fraud. He feels they improved that so lowered it and created the system for early monetization but still need some buffer to prove commitment and not just make accounts to start moving money around

I am compling the history of education on twitch. Please reach out to me with things you've accomplished for twitch edu. I especially need the OGs like @horizonsci @starstryder.space @skylias.bsky.social @deamonmachine and so many more. Thank you in advanced.

Twitch Affiliate will be easier!

This is funny because you can monetize early without affiliate, unable to receive payouts, then in 4 days become an Affiliate and get payouts.

Dan previously said that the original limitations for Affiliate was to help prevent fraud

Monetize on Twitch without Affiliate
- subs, bits, emotes, badges
- Payout still requires Affiliate
- Affiliates and non-affiliates can spend balance on Twitch by gift subs to your community or subs on other channels
- Can also roll over balance until you meet payout

Twitch took my idea

Run your own gift sub discount promotions on Twitch on your own schedule
Limited hours - run a bunch of short streams or a few big promos
"The average creator saw a 30% in their gifting revenue during promotions"
"Viewers tend to gift more and select larger bundles"

Twitch partnering with Aitum for vertical streaming
Send horizontal and vertical from OBS simultaneously
Mobile viewers can rotate phone to change live
Majority of new viewers and more than half of monthly viewership are using mobile

Discord voice chat is displaying over OBS because it is included in registered games.
Discord Settings -> Registered Games
- report and hide

Twitch seems to be restoring erroneously deleted highlights.

I've seen two posts so far, one of them was someone who originally mentioned their most viewed highlights were deleted instead of lowest views.
