Thats a tad shady…
Cheer-ing was supposed to be about cheer-ing something that happens, “hey GG have some bits” granted that’s not really what it’s become (yay ad bit farming free money fest), but thats a different story.
Striking just fine for us/me/those I work with.
Sue them for stealing your copyright/trade infringing idea. Sadly I imagine they or other users of this forum can show how they came to the same idea independently or received a feature request from users/streamers saying “hey can we have x like y please”. Everyone borrows from everyone else, and often doesn’t check if it already exists, since it needs building yesterday.
Like a SubTrain timer? That was in SubAlert ooooooooh so long ago. Or if you mean the subathon stuff, not idea where that originated from, everyone sorta went, “hey I want this and it does y based on z” I’ve built three or so each, slightly different. Yay for concepts. Or a “stream starting” timer, thats just a clock…
Some yes, most probably not, but different strokes for different folks, I don’t have enough metrics to support this based on existing stuff that exists.
Edit: And it’s probably more linked to how many unspent bits are in peoples purses, people don’t really tend to go and buy bits to spread about… A tad weird…
The one that is currently in beta and only works on the main twitch website and doesn’t on what I believe is the biggest growth area? Mobile? Prototype using a CLR browser, and go from there. Most[citation missing] of the interactive overlays that exist right now use the IO to capture user interaction and display on a CLR browser anyway.
So your idea of using IO makes little sense, as you already excluded 75%[citation missing] of viewers from seeing it, granted those that can’t see it, due to platform, are probably never gonna tip or cheer regardless.
Nope, I already went fishing and I got nothing.
