The Future of Streaming Platforms: Changes, Backlash, and Rivalries.

Twitch star Pokimane has suggested that content creators should turn to OnlyFans-style platforms for direct-to-consumer paid content, as content creation becomes more saturated and relying on social media platforms for income becomes more difficult. She listed OnlyFans, Patreon, and consumer goods as examples of platforms that allow creators to make more money. However, she emphasized that social media platforms are still important for discoverability. This comes after Twitch faced backlash for its new rules on branded content.
