>Twitch announced a way to circumvent ad skipping by implementing a compulsory ad gate on the viewer's account. In practice, as long as an audience does not fully watch an ad, a counter will keep track of the unfinished ads. The number will go down for each fully watched ad and as long as it's above 0, the viewer will keep getting ads>However if an audience still insists on leaving and not viewing the whole ad, it will add up to the counter in a positive feedback loop>This has the potential of 'softlocking' a viewer if they keep leaving the stream mid-ad, with enough penalties can last an entire streamWhat's the point of streaming on Twitch again?
They are speedrunning total twitch death.
Nigger what the fuck is this alpha level jewry?!
>>91803635>Don't be poor>Dont't be tech illiterate.solved.
Holy shit who the fuck approved of this?
>>91803635link or gtfo
Looks like Ironmouse will have to start making content that isnt reacting to other peoples content. Scary I know
>>91803635Come on OP, where the source?I want to laugh at it
>>91803635Twitch is gonna get the United treatment soon arent they?
>>91803635what the fuck is this nonsense
>>91803635I don't watch twitch. Not my problem. Youtube has better VOD options and there are plenty of videos without ad interruption.
>>91803635Go to kick
>>91803635I just added a few sentences to uBlock
>>91803710They're bleeding advertisers so they're really desperate.
>>91803635OP is picrel, wheres your source bitch
>>91803635It would be funny if it's real, post the update tos
yeah i mean i hate twitch but i'm going to call bullshit on this one op
>>91803635proof?
>>91803635rip
>>91805952What are the odds theyll do the same thing as Youtube where ad revenue is compensated by making people without ad block watch more ads
>>91803635And if you think your chuuba is safe on Youtube, think again. Neal is no doubt looking at Twitch and taking notes. He's already declared war on ublock origin (see picrel), it's only a matter of time before he breaks the site with compulsory adslop as well. Where will we go then?
>>91803635i didnt read any of that, anyway watch vedal987 tomorrow, subathon start.
This just reeks of desperation on their part. It’ll soon become a hellscape if they cannot course correct.
>>91811109vedal pls
>>91810198I haven't seen that screen in about a year.
>>91803635This is so stupid, but I believe it.
>>91803635I hate that the internet is just becoming TV only somehow more intrusive. Everything has to be a nonstop fucking tidal wave of ads
>>91812387the infinite growth model was a mistake
>>91803635Why?
>>91816317Twitch's devs are retarded.
>>91803827
>>91803635>still no sauce 4 hours laterI'm calling bullshit, but even if its true these retards still couldn't figure out a way to make unblockable inline ads.
If this is real Im selling my left nut
