I’m going to assume that this awful change won’t be rescinded, which in case the following would be great:
1. EXTEND THE DEADLINE for automatic highlight expungement from 60 days out to 180 days. Two months notice is simply not enough. For my streamer’s channel we’re talking about 7-8 months worth of VODs turned into highlights which I estimate could be upwards of 3 terabytes of content that will quite a bit of time to move. I can’t begin to imagine how much of a burden this will be for channels that have been archiving VODs as highlights for years.
2. STOP BLOCKING channels from creating new highlights that are over the new limit as there was no prior notice that such a limitation was coming. Don’t block channels from this for at least 30 days.
3. STOP MAKING MASSIVE CHANGES without discussing it with the creator community. This isn’t about asking permission from streamers, it’s about getting feedback from the people these changes affect the most about how to get through it as painlessly as possible. Creators may not have convinced you not to take this awful step but if Twitch had taken time to talk about it with them, I bet we wouldn’t all now be stuck with “you can’t highlight anything new until you have 100% completely dealt with this change which could end up taking days if not weeks of work to sort out”.
4. CREATE A PAID OPTION for content creators who wish to keep VODs permanently on Twitch or who wish to have more storage for highlights. If this isn’t viable then at least you tried to address your problem (storage space) in the least disruptive way, instead of just steamrolling over everyone.
Thanks.
