That’s gonna take a whopping 10 lines of userscript to defeat, hell I already had to use one to stop them from dropping the video quality when unfocused (so I could watch streams in PiP properly)
Avoid minimizing or muting Twitch for a better experience.
Avoid enshittifying Twitch for a better experience.
We’re getting closer and closer to this:
Holy fuck it’s real
rofl why does the patent have the viewer stand up and cheer it
Lmao fuck twitch
gets arrested for using ad-blocking technologies
Drink verification can.
That’s a full boycott from me, dawg.
Not even once. I’m good watching recycled twitch clips wherever they crop up. Fuck your business model with a pitchfork.
I guess I’ll continue never using twitch.
I too shall continue my boycott that begin in 1981
I stopped going to the theater because I had to pay to watch commercials and advertisements.
I already saw this Black Mirror episode

I think the real alternatives are Peertube or Owncast, because they are non commercially and FOSS and can be self hosted and federated.
In the long run, every commercial platform that has enough users will enshittify, that’s just capitalism. That’s why we have to break the cycle and reject corporate social media.
Feels like a definite mile marker in our descent to Idiocracy.
This is Black Mirror, not Idiocracy. If you can only relate to reality through fiction, at least use the appropriate one.
Calm down.
