Popular Twitch streamer Imane “Pokimane” Anys slams YouTube Gaming by pointing out some of the issues she faced recently on the platform. Recently, Pokimane defended Twitch on the ongoing streaming wars after YouTube signed Twitch popular streamer, Ludwig. She also highlighted the point that YouTube isn’t all-loving and caring about their streamers as it’s been made out to be.
Above all, she also majorly pointed out the revenge strategy of YouTube when she choose Twitch over YouTube two years ago. According to Pokimane, after that, YouTube ultimately crashed her views on the platform and also kicked her out of the algorithm. Suddenly all of her videos just died as the views dropped from 900K views per day to 100k total views. That’s definitely quite a big call out from Pokimane as she is hinting towards the issue.

Pokimane said, “Twitch has so many streamers. Do they care about you? Sure. Are they gonna care about you to the same level as YouTube who’s trying to get their fifth big streamer over onto their platform? Ofcourse not.”

“Twitch has much less to lose than YouTube does. It’s like if you are dating a dude and he has like four other girlfriends and you are like the fifth. Whereas if you are dating a dude and you’re gonna be his first girlfriend ever. Like of course he is going to care about you more.” She added. Pokimane pointed out the fact that Twitch has thousands of streamers, whereas YouTube only got a few famous streamers to care about.

All of this started when Ludwig left Twitch to sign YouTube mainly due to the carelessness of Twitch. According to Ludwig, Twitch didn’t seem to care about him and other streamers a lot. Later on, other popular streamers like TimTheTatman also agreed upon this comment. Now, Pokimane has finally weighed in on the move and she is on the side of Twitch this time. She also exposed a much darker side of YouTube for signing away a lot of highly popular and record-breaker Twitch streamers away from the platform.
