- eljimmy 7y agoNo doubt. Twitch is also pretty easy to get in contact with regarding any content disputes as well, at least in comparison to YouTube.
- faissaloo 7y agoI would've loved it if it were PeerTube or something but the sad reality is that Twitch is the only platform that's even close to comparable to YouTube.
- erikpukinskis 7y agoEspecially if VR starts capturing attention on a grander scale.
- aitchnyu 7y agoIs Twitch becoming a general purpose video site? At a glance, it seems all screengrabs and tabletop cameras of games.
- fenwick67 7y agoRight now you are right. Twitch only lets you stream live content and keep recordings of it. But they certainly compete with YouTube for eyeballs, and I can't imagine they're not working on a regular video ecosystem.
- iforgotpassword 7y agoInteresting, in my book twitch was still streaming only. Given the backing by Amazon you might be right.
