I flat out will not gift any more subs on Twitch because of this. It's just a ******, selfish, greedy change. It literally costs Twitch nothing to show badges. It probably actually costs MORE money to run a program that takes people's badges away over time.
ESPECIALLY when the higher tiers are literal hundreds to THOUSANDS of dollars. People have badges for gifting five hundred subs to one channel, that's over two grand. Forcing people to continue giving money is unreasonable.
This is the kind of ****** money-grubbing decision that makes people hate corporations. And I for one will put a hard stop on that money source to make this terrible decision an unprofitable one.
