It's not just becoming more like reddit. Reddit still allows you to post porn and whatever you want in your own subreddits, and you can even make subreddits invite only.
Twitch inconsistently applies the ban hammer across the board. DMCA takedowns apply to everyone, even if it's your ringtone while you're coding with just 1 viewer. And takedowns rarely are given any sort of explanation, and if you aren't already a big enough streamer to create an uproar on twitter you're likely fucked.
And as little faith as I have in reddit's moderation, I have none in twitch whatsover. Trusting twitch's moderation team is like trusting facebook's privacy team. Yes, it really is that fucking awful.
- chevill 6y agoI agree the moderation of twitch is much worse. I was referring to the quality of the content. There are worthwhile niches you can find on both sites.
- Judgmentality 6y agoSorry for the misunderstanding. I agree, there are lots of great small streamers on twitch.

But they don't allow _anything_, there are some things, while not illegal, are still off-limits. Like making fun of fat people. Sure, I agree, not every platform needs to host every idiots opinion, but if you go out with "We will not ban questionable subreddits" it feels slightly weird if you then reverse your position only weeks later.
