"Just put your Twitch highlights on YouTube? I don't see the problem?".

YouTube is an entirely different world. I stopped uploading VODs to YouTube because it destroyed my mental health. Genuinely.

I want to preserve the history & culture of my Twitch community history; it belongs on Twitch.

Christ you're not kidding on how youtube just destroys your mind.

Ive barely dipped a toe in and it just caused me a mental meltdown one day dealing with it when my health was low. Youtube just assassinates your efforts for basically no reason.

I am SO sorry you've experienced this. It is so unacceptable and so scary. I wish it were different <3

YouTube sounds like a terrible place for archiving anyways, given their track record. I hope people start putting their stuff on https://archive.org instead

I’ve signed. I don’t remember the last time I read or posted a comment on YT. Literally the Wild West sadly and I fully understand how difficult it can be for people who have to cope with the sad part of the internet through no fault of their own.

I love Twitch. I adore this platform. This all comes from a place of love, genuinely. I want Twitch to succeed & I understand this decision is a part of ensuring it does - but I feel some nuance has been missed here, quite massively.

Specifically & hopefully plausibly; we need more time.
