Twitch: Small Streamer Make Protest, Great Streamer Making Checkout - #adayOpp

Some streamer wanted to set a sign against Hate Raids on September on September 1 on Twitch and called for strike under the hashtag #adayofftwitch. Only a few of the great streamer solidized with the smaller ones. The life of the big earners in the Twitch is just about really thick, new contracts.

That's #adayoftWitch:

• Some streamers called to strike twitch for a day and not stream. They wanted to pay attention to Hate Raids. The meet particularly small streamers and relatives of marginalized groups hard.
• It was early on that some of the great streamer would not carry this protest.
• Now we know some of the results.

Twitch were missing about 7-13% of the viewers

Has the strike worked? Well, it was at least one impact noticeable. The 1st of September was from the point of view of the audience numbers a weak day for Twitch, but no catastrophic day. The difference in the audience numbers from last Wednesday to the strikeunt rose only during the day when the Hashtag spoke around:

• At the wedding of the day on September 1 at 10pm, Twitch had about 3.5 million viewers
• At the wedding of the day last Wednesday, Twitch had about 4.5 million viewers
• 5 hours Before, however, the difference had only 370,000 spectators (2.55 million vs. 2.92 million)

Twitch lacked a total of about 7-12% of viewers compared to the pre-weeks, as a journalist has calculated.

Zach Busy moved into other factors in his bill, such as the departure of some streamer and the Gamescom boost.

2 large twitch streamers change for a lot of money to youtube

What was going on among the big streamers? A special shoot of the day was that 2 large Twitch Streamer had just announced on August 31st and on 1 September, no longer on Twitch to stream: Drflupo and Timthatan change YouTube. They signed exclusive contracts there. The speech is of money that will change life.

Alone because they no longer stream, Twitch missed on Wednesday, September 1, about 50,000 spectators.

Have also made great streamers at the strike? Yes, at least the stressed left streamer and house owner Hasan HasanPiker Abi did not stream solidarity on 1 September. Shooter specialist Shroud was also not on air.

Even the largest Spanish-speaking streamers, Ibai and Auronplay, which usually always stream, were not on twitch on September 1st. Auronplay Solidarized expressly with the Hashtag.

Some streamer, of whom you know that you have a high social sense of responsibility, such as Pokimane or Myth currently streaming anyway less and were not on the air on 1 September.

The currently largest streamer on Twitch, XQC, but ripped his 11 hours on Twitch. His colleague Trainswreck started a 37-hour stream on August 31 and streamed the 1st of September. Großverdiener like Tfue, Ninja and Summi1g were also on air. Also for the largest German Streamer Montanablack was the 1st of September a day like any other - Trymacs and dadlatte also sent on Twitch.

Even further went the WoW streamer Asmongold. The streamed not on September 1, but found the strike overall silly. It was said: Nobody interests a shit when you ask for you a day. Nobody knows who you are.

He would only join in when all the big streamer participate, then immediately, but if a few Andys do that, it is not it.

Used sympathetic.

This is the discussion in the German Twitch Bubble : There is a variety of tweets on German. The key is completely different:

• For many, it's a very serious topic. They want to pay attention to which hate relative marginalized group often see - not just on Twitch, but everywhere

• Others take the hashtag loosely. They say they solidarize themselves with #adayofftwitch, but never streamed Wednesday, or took the chance now to make blue

• Others say they did not want streamers to be turned on, just because they stream on September 1st. There people are not better than the hats they criticize

• Again and again you also read conscious decisions not to join the strike. Because Twitch companies do something anyway and have already recognized the movement - the strike is therefore useless
• Others said: If you feel the strike as useless, evidence only that it speaks from a privileged situation and apparently never victims of such Hate Raids

In advance, the hashtag had been discussed controversially. Some said they could not afford to be on Twitch a day. Others said not to be present a day on Twitch, that's exactly what Hatter wanted to achieve: The Haters had sold so streamers from Twitch. That can therefore not be a solution.

For others, the strike tag was a way to meet Twitch as where you remember: the purse. They hope that Twitch now undertakes something against the Hat Raids.

Hass comments often meet the small streamer, which are delivered to you without a glorious, because they do not have a large network of moderators. One of the biggest streamers on Twitch also came into the crosshair, apparently mainly because she is a woman:

Big twitch streamer gets a lot of hatred, now puts a break now
