YouTube now lets you choose the output orientation of a mobile stream.
Previously, you had to make sure 'auto-rotate' was enabled before you went live.

Also, he sees Amazon Prime Video and Netflix as direct competitors rather than YouTube and TikTok.

Twitch's Sidebar menu has introduced a new function: Click and Hold.
Currently, it opens nothing, but an Arrow suggests a submenu - and it persists when you release your click.
(I'd wager that's where yesterday's CALL function will sit.)

I created a UserVoice.
1. Do not implement a call feature in the sidebar.
2. Do not implement a call feature that is ON by default.
3. If you implement a call feature as part of Guest Star, make it channel-specific and make it OPT-IN.

Also, to confirm, you cannot turn them off for your channel. They are on, and stay on. BUT, what you can control is the price. So, if you really don't want to use them just set them for an absurd price.
