What do you think Twitch's Pride Month will look like this year?

Considering it's Amazon, and Amazon has walked back a lot, I'm hoping for the best but also kind of expecting nothing at this stage.

That being said, this is what leads to community events like the incredible Pride Cinematic Universe from @antthunderfun.bsky.social @pcu.gg

If everyone around them is ending "DEI" programs, how soon will it take Amazon to mandate that none of its subsidiaries may even express solidarity like Pride Month on Twitch?

Will it be scaled back?

Will it be visible?

Will it exist?

Unsure if it’s authentic or not, but there appears to be inner circle people in the GOO that are once again co-opting a term, but with DEI to use the Raegen era meaning of “Don’t Ever Integrate”.

*GOP, not GOO.

And, let's be honest: It was barely visible this past year.

I was a feature Pride creator intended to be featured year-round. They never once featured my stream in a way that was measurable to my analytics.

If anything, they are going to bury us as much as they can.

Same boat, they never featured me on their carousel.

My guess is that they just don't bother this year

I think it's a coin toss whether Twitch even acknowledges pride month this year. Kinda worried this means we can kiss trans/queer-related stream tags goodbye as well.
