Twitch streamers will have it a lot harder. The platform removes one of the functions that was used by them

Entertaining

Twitch decided to remove one of the features that was absolutely essential to the ASMR category.


ASMR on Twitch is a bit of a separate world. This is a category that has its own rules – in short, there are no laws there. Everyone does what they want, streams what they want and how they want. Now, Twitch is removing one of the features most ASMR streamers used.

Does this mean ASMR will disappear at all? Rather not, but it will certainly affect the popularity of these broadcasts.

What will Twitch remove?

Some of the viewers probably do not even know what it is. In many countries, nobody uses it.

“Rerun” is a replay of VODs. If you do not know the ASMR category, you may know reruns from, for example, a situation where people associated with Reckful played old VODs to commemorate him.

Most people will not notice the difference at all, as this feature has only been used in niche channels or in niche categories. It was just a replay of VOD.

However, there are people who have used it, mostly with streamers broadcasting in different languages at different times. People planned their VODs at different times to match the time zones.
