      it's sad twitch is at the point where they completely tune out the thousands of people in the community complaining non stop about the problems, saying and showing clips of how the only fans girls are trying to go one step further to see what they can get away with and nothing changes. The only way twtich does anything is if some of the popular guys step up and go out of their way to show just how stupid the rules are, like tectone saying look at me i'm pretending to jack off on stream and twtich cant ban me because of their rules.

    I think what’s been the most frustrating of all for me was how artists got fucked over in the process. The reason the meta was introduced in the first place was for artistic nudity and even then it was pretty stringent about no genitals. And of course the new innovations of bad actors PLUS the lack of (or I guess now, DELAYED) moderation on Twitch led everything to spiral down. Idk I feel like these “new” features should’ve already existed on the platform. Lud’s absolute right that it’s very much a “Catch Me If You Can” situation lmfao.

    Twitch can say whatever they like about pretending to do something about the sexual content meta they started by drawing attention to it in the first place. Fact of the matter is i still open up their site and majority of the content on the browse page is still "18+..." And all sorts of sexual content. Nothing has changed and its just become the popular thing now to try and get away with it in whatever way they can. Ir feels like it will be a while until this meta actually dies

  • @Gorbgorbenson

    Twitch has to REALLY enforce that shit, or it wont be the end. Even then, it's insane that that content is on the same website as normal gaming streams.
    I was thinking about this before I watched the video, and I feel like the only way they could get rid of that content is banning advertising for other websites on their platform. That would come with its own issues, though, like sponsored streams being banned.
    I think it's just something that has to be accepted as a norm on twitch now.

    It's a super tough question: How do you make sure explicit content won't be seen by unwanted audiences, especially underaged folks, while allowing the maximum amount of freedom of expression, when it's hard to define what is explicit or not in the first place, when you have to do all of these moderations in real-time(cuz they're live streams).

    • @a.w_.

      @alpacamax3404 3 місяці тому

      @@fart63 Yeah I get your point. The problem is where do you draw the line? Sure those who are naked on the stream are definitely producing sexual content. But what if, for example, a female streamer simply wears something slightly explicit while doing normal content(like that piano girl). Do we enforce some dress code for female streamers? That would be unfair to them, right? Cuz male streamers would have more freedom in terms of dress code. So let's say we enforce the same dress code to all genders. But that would create a new problem: now some types of content revolving around cosplays would not be allowed on Twitch (for example male streamers wearing cat maid costumes), which are perfectly normal content but wouldn't be allowed under the dress code. This is a made-up example but the gist is it's just hard to draw the line.

    There’s a really silly situation where a current went from hardcore stuff to gameing.

    Well I don’t care personally, I only watch Twitch these days to catch my friends streams here and there, I think it’s funny when people say that Twitch is a gaming streaming website. It’s not imo, just chatting is the biggest category and pretty much always has been.

    Am I wrong? I feel like the blurred thumbo is gonna increase viewership (by a small % at least). I feel like if you're a coomer searching for something to goon to, a blurred image that can be unblurred by one click isn't gonna stop you. And once you do open the stream to see if it's sometime you're interested in, the streamer has more control in making sure you stay. Honestly the unskippable ad at the beginning is a bigger deterrent.
    I can't imagine someone deciding what to watch, seeing one thumbnail that's unblurred but slightly suggestive and one that is blurred and more suggestive, and that forcing the decision towards the unblurred streamer.
