Reminder to find a time to check in with yourself! I'm working on finding the small moments to ground myself, so today I took my lunch break outside and colored while sitting in the sun โ˜€๏ธ

July 2026 Year-over-Year Stats for Twitch Twitch continues its general downward trend, but the slide appears to be slowing. If it continues on the slowing curve it's on, the platform may level out (and maybe even show signs of growth) in 16-24 months.

Twitch will soon start enforcing a rule prohibiting the broadcasting of non-live DJ content. Starting in August, all creators in the DJ program must broadcast live content - no prerecorded or VOD channels. Warning, followed by Channel Ban enforcement.

Why we're making this change:
The DJ Program's live streaming policy reinforces that Twitch is all about live content that allows creators to connect with their communities in real time. Content that is solely rebroadcast or pre-recorded does not align with the intended purpose of Twitch or the DJ Program. To ensure the program continues to serve its purpose and support creators who are actively engaging with their audiences live, we are now moving to enforce this existing policy.

What's changing (enforcement only โ€” not the policy):
Beginning in August, we will begin enforcing against channels enrolled in the DJ Program that stream pre-recorded content rather than broadcasting live, interactive sets. This includes replaying DJ sets on secondary accounts and streaming pre-recorded music videos without a live DJ presence.

What this means for you:
If your channel is currently streaming pre-recorded content while enrolled in the DJ Program, you will need to transition to live, interactive streaming to remain in compliance.

Enforcement approach:
You will receive a warning via email. Infractions incurred after the warning will result in a channel ban.

What you need to do:
If you believe your channel may be affected, please review your streaming setup and ensure you are broadcasting live, interactive content before August 2026.

What's not changing: This enforcement does not affect DJs who are already streaming live, interactive sets.Bild

I would be very cautious about this "sponsorship platform" called SocialDB / socialdb.xyz . - Domain created 46 days ago. - Claims to have 14K sponsors (and 956K influencers). - Hidden registrar (lists an apartment building on-site). - ScamAdvisor Warning + Gridinsoft Warning.

Too many people have lost their lives due to ICE's violence and negligence. These devastating tragedies are a predictable result of President Trump and Stephen Miller's anti-immigrant campaign. Tell our leaders in Congress to stop enabling ICE's violence at aclu.org/stop-ice_killings

Black graphic reading "Tell Congress: Stop ICE's deadly spree. There is a picture of a sign reading "ICE doesn't protect, ICE kills" and an image reading Police and ICE". There is a tiny megaphone at the top of the graphic.
