Amazing how fast Twitch has grown. Nearly 1/4th the size of YouTube in spite of catering to a single category & not having the decade plus of searchable archives algorithmically boosted by Google ranking integrations, not having the deals with record labels, etc.

Google was pouring 10s of millions into a YouTube creator roll up network 6 years ago

They really screwed up letting Amazon buy Twitch so cheap.

Remember someone here posted about a conference speaker saying "email is dead" or "nobody uses email anymore" or something like that?

187,000,000 emails per minute could either destroy or support her argument, depending on how you look at it.
