Because of this feature, there is 18+ content on the main page of Twitch. Something went wrong

Entertaining

Twitch introduced the possibility of paying for more exposure of streams some time ago. This has quite unusual consequences.


Twitch every now and then introduces new features that turn out to be not as good as predicted. At the moment, the platform offers, for example, a paid “introduction” to the main page of Twitch.

The principle of operation is simple – the streamer’s community pays to make them more visible to a larger audience. The stream appears on the home page and in theory, it is supposed to attract new people.

But something has gone wrong

In fact, the entire mechanism works as of today. And it’s so funny that any broadcast can be promoted. Also those with 18+ content. This is problematic because streamers can not go to the home page too much now, because by seeing what is displayed there, they can get banned.

Is it funny? Rather not, because it’s easy to imagine a bizarre situation in which a streamer browses TTV, he is shown the 18+ thumbnail, for which he gets banned a moment later. And at the moment it is not difficult, because the example above is just one of many.
