As a software engineer, I bet somebody from a marketing team or somebody with a business degree decided this was a priority. Y'all could have worked on anything else but this.

Streaming duolingo is more difficult than learning a new language :(

100% spot on! I've used multiple streaming platforms on twitch and so far I've noticed a huge inconsistency in the "go live" notification aspect. I shouldn't have to open the twitch website and go to the stream manager to edit the "go live" notification. Seems like this is an API access issue. Yo, Twitch, Is there an endpoint for this? What are the parameters?

This is an excellent idea and easily implemented via TZ data from the user profiles. The data is already there so throwing that into a graph would really increase the visibility of when/where people are viewing from which would allow a streamer to adjust their streaming times accordingly. Great idea!

Simple problems have simple solutions:
Allow streamers to set their own subscription amount. Split that amount 50/50. Convert to the country of the stream origin.
If I stream in the United States and somebody subscribes for $5 USD, that's $5 USD that should be split 50/50.
If I take a trip to Germany and [do a stream from there where] somebody subscribes for €5 EUR, That's €5 EUR that should be split 50/50.
When I get back to the USA, I can convert those EUR to USD or leave them as EUR just like any other normal human.
Why is everything forced to be in USD?
One could argue that by forcing payout in USD, it is effectively a money laundering mechanism that bypasses currency export laws of the origin country from the sub to the destination country of the streamer.
Edit: [example clarification]
