Was an Hololive video. Hololive is that thing with "vtubers", virtual streamers with anime avatars. I only skimmed through the video and it didn't look particularily special, just playing a horror-kinda game and screaming.

Hololive is this strange sort of streamer management company in Japan. They have a big gaggle of streamers that work for them, but I don't know how the business model works.
They provide the 3d models and art they use, and the makers have some serious credentials so all of that can't be cheap. I think in Japan they also have some kind of office space because they will get together sometimes and have fully tracked avatars for that.
You'd expect success in Japan, where parting weebs from their money is an art long practiced, but the aforelinked was the english division, which is fairly new. I haven't really looked into it much but I think they are doing quite well based on the bits I've watched. 40k people watching that strange game + lots of donations rolling in.
Not sure why youtube nuked that vid. It was a stealth game where you are chased around a gym by oily ricardo-looking dudes angry at you stealing their protein powder.

From a reply to that tweet
Kind of crazy if you delete your content, but still you can get your channel taken down because of things still being available, but hidden?
Is that still the streamers fault, or is it Twitch? Once a creator deletes a clip, you'd think Twitch is the liable one for still storing content and not the streamer who in good faith thought they had removed the content by doing everything they could do with the tools given by Twitch (and the only tool given is to delete it, which is also what twitch said to do to "be safe").

I keep getting hit with 6-7+ ads mid-stream, using an Nvidia shield though so I am unable to block them. Makes me want to harm myself.

DMCA in general sucks but youtube has a good handle on it and their system is less retarded than twitch.
Also, it's not a collective strike system, they are twitch streamers so as long as they don't get a strike on twitch who cares about youtube.

I'd bet money that what's going on with twitch getting so assrammed is a squabble amongst billionaires.

Different companies have different shit going on behind the scenes. Facebook Gaming lets any partnered streamer play a ton of copywritten music because they have deals with the music labels.

No that's the diagram for the portable (read: able to travel with it) streaming setup he's getting from Intel. Notice the Alienware M17 which is a laptop. I happened to be watching him play Tarkov and caught the whole bit, it's pretty wild.
