Twitch is introducing a new “Partner Plus” program that will give streamers an increased 70 percent of the share of their subscription revenues, with Twitch taking the other 30 percent, the company announced on Thursday. Most partnered streamers receive 50 percent of their subscription revenues, though Twitch had negotiated 70 / 30 deals with some of the platform’s biggest streamers until recently.

Streamers will need to keep a sub count of at least 350 “recurring paid subscriptions for three consecutive months” to qualify for the program, Twitch’s chief monetization officer Mike Minton and chief content officer Laura Lee said in the company’s blog post. Once you meet that benchmark, the execs say you’ll be automatically enrolled for the next 12 months, “even if you dip below the subscription threshold during the 12-month period.” (Free subscriptions given to Amazon Prime members do not count toward qualifying for the Partner Plus tier, according to an FAQ.) After you earn $100,000 in subscription revenues, your split will be reduced to the standard 50 / 50.

Yeah the problem there is VerticalScope has a hidden hand in all those pies and draconian monetization policies.

My wife was truely offended the first time I said this to her, which is very rare, because she didn't know it was a reference. Now its good for a double laugh.

Yeah, I meant specific data using lemmy.world as a datum, not the theoretical "check and see if you guessed right" method.

Just curious, what sort of hardware is lemmy.world using/moving to? Wondering if there's a good way to predict load based on number of users.

Disable auto-refresh? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Seemingly on my feed page (is that the right word?) any new posts from any instance updates the page and pushes all the other posts down. This also seems to bypass the sorting method as it just seems to be "new" posts from any instance regardless of its upvotes or age (maybe it also happens when an instance is linked)? Regardless, is it possible to disable any sort of "Live" viewing on the page? Simply static and requiring a refresh, either in the user settings or server setting? Moving website content isn't great accessibility-wise on desktop. Going to click a link and it moving out from the mouse is frustrating. ___

Still getting used to lemmy, was wondering if the sorting of comments was a thing you could change (permanently) user side or if it was server side? Also the auto-refreshing ‘home page’ that scoots everything down is bad on desktop. Not a whole lot of ‘googleable’ information yet on lemmy
