@Xfinity y'all are the worst internet provider I've ever had btw. The only support you can contact are AI bots, I have had outages DAILY for the last week but somehow "ineligible for outage credits" but my wifi has been down more than it's been up. I miss you @GetSpectrum

@MintzeyMoon @cyropike Yeah it's super unoptimized and locks basic features behind a $30 a month paywall

@cyropike I've used it in the past and always had issues with it, I personally just don't like it

Does anyone have any GOOD alternatives to Stream Elements, including multi streaming? I refuse to use Stream Labs

@zachbussey @ShiroixVT I think locking basic features behind a $30 a month paywall is outrageously greedy. Sure you can charge for some features but basic features don't need to be paywalled like overlays. The streamlabs app is also incredibly unoptimized

@ShiroixVT I understand. Ironically, maybe SE should have paywalled more things lol. So not the worst move.

RE: StreamElements To get everyone on the same page, here's a breakdown on what's happening, because rumors always travel further and faster in a vacuum. Earlier today, there was an initial rumor that StreamElements was laying off all staff and shutting down. I heard this secondhand from a trusted source, but, like any rumor, it was not confirmed; it was merely a starting point. (I personally require at least two independent sources to confirm a story, as individuals can make mistakes or misinterpret the facts, especially if there's a reason that might make it personal.) Since then, this single source has repeated this story to everyone in his StreamElements Sponsorship Discord (not the official one), and as such, it has been shared as a rumor widely across streamer Twitter. Yes, he does work for StreamElements as a Creator Success Manager. So, he does have credibility. At the same time, I have attempted to get secondary confirmation from anyone at StreamElements - but have been unable to. Every person I have spoken to about this (creators, former SE staff, media people) has the same source... the person mentioned above. Now that said, let's talk contributing factors: 1. StreamElements continues to be silent on the matter. 2. They have been slow to pay users in recent weeks. 3. They seem to have been removed from Twitch's Third Party sponsorship offers. 4. They have been soliciting donations to keep the service free. 5. They have had numerous layoffs over the last few years, and more have left of their own volition in the last few months. On the other hand, it's unusual to simply shut down a service with hundreds of thousands of users without first becoming a paid service. Or maybe just shutting down part of the service and focusing wholly on the sponsorship side. Either way, it's unusual. This entire thing is unusual. And while the rumors may end up being true, I don't feel confident saying that yet. As I said, my standard is at least two independent confirmations - more is better. I always prefer being right to being first. That said, given the situation as presented, it may still be worthwhile to ensure any SEPay money is requested, and you may want to download your alerts (or move to an alternative, such as Streamlabs. Disclosure: I have a partnership with them - but an easy link to do so is attached below.) If I learn more before StreamElements addresses it publicly themselves, I will share whatever facts I can confirm.

@ShiroixVT @zachbussey People defending streamlabs.... It's still $27 a month for features that are free with streamelements. Sure an argument can be made that SE is shutting down but they ran for over a decade without charging us $30 a damn month for the service so streamlabs is genuinely just greedy

@zachbussey RIP when SE goes down and everybody is forced to go to this greedy streamlabs shitty thing

@streamlabs @mrboost92 @StreamElements I would hate to switch from stream elements to streamlabs. I tried streamlabs but $27 a month for features that just are not worth it is an insane price tag especially in the big 2026. Can't justify it

@mrboost92 @StreamElements Our team would be happy to help you out however we can. Shoot us over an email at bd@streamlabs.com and let us know what you need from us!

In light of the recent rumors @StreamElements is to shut down. I’ll begin working on getting my widgets ported over to @streamlabs. I will likely start with the most popular ones and work down. The best thing I could suggest would be to keep your eyes open on my twitter or join the discord and I’ll try to keep everyone updated with everything!

@blerp You didn't send anything 😭

Hi @TeamYouTube, I’m reaching out again to request an urgent human review of my channel. It was demonetized for "inauthentic content" and my appeal was rejected, but all my work is original 3D that takes a lot of time and skill to produce. This is clearly a mistake. Thank you.

YouTube demonetized me for "inauthentic content". This is what I make 👇 It takes at least a week, a render farm, and advanced skills to create a 3D video like this. I work too hard for it to be labeled as low effort. My appeal was rejected. Please @TeamYouTube, review my case

My YouTube channel VAPORAMA VISION (170K subs) was demonetized for "mass-produced content" and my appeal was rejected, even though I create original 3D videos that take weeks and significant resources to produce. I understand the intent, @TeamYouTube, but this may be a mistake.
