I was responding to the OP statement (and source with 2021 as the last data point) that "Viewership growth seems good". Lockdowns were in 2020, not 2021. Yes, April 2020 gave a huge bump to Twitch and the pandemic obviously had a

The main source I've found for the December WotC layoffs is Christian Hoffer's Twitter[1] and only 3 of the ~20 people listed seem to be art staff. Some of the lists, such as on Reddit, appear to (erroneously?) list a few artists

Even some Amazon stuff is really good. I used a Kindle 2 e-reader daily for ~14 years and, aside from decreased battery life, it was still great. Sadly I eventually stepped on it one too many times and the screen cracked. I might fix it for
