Upcoming Changes to the Streams v5 Endpoints

If I’m reading this correctly, the changes to the offset parameter have the potential to be pretty serious for integrations such as mine, as there several properties missing in Helix which are rather fundamental. For example, it’s not possible to efficiently get multiple channels follower counts in helix.

Even if these where added right now, the timeframe to make these changes is super short. It would be possible to use Helix for most of the data and then go back to v5 for the missing parts, but again the time to make these changes is tiny.

This has me a wee bit concerned…
