Microsoft is shutting down yet another product:
https://blog.mixer.com/2020/06/...

At this point I'm neither surprised, nor mad. Simply sad, cause I kind of liked Mixer.
Well, R.I.P. just like many other MS projects...

@Frederick I was using Twitch way prior the Amazon purchase, since it was the only platform. I've lost track on what is happening on game streaming these days.

@Frederick Double standards depending on the revenues each streamer brings?

The saddest part is they moved everything to Facebook Gaming...

@JS96 From what I've understood they're moving the user-base and the streamers will get some new contracts with conditions as "close" as those they had with Mixer.
I think Facebook is not competing with Microsoft in many sectors, maybe AI and A/VR? The other two big platforms are owned by rival companies, aka Amazon and Google.

@Qaldim seems like a weird mix, and just my gut, but microsoft and facebook seem like they'd make a good merger.

@Qaldim you mean back in the days when it was justintv? That is more than a decade ago. Time flies...

I'm just laughing at the fact that they brought Ninja down with them. Plan: buy Twitch's most expensive streamer and then go out of business

@AlgoRythm Well, Microsoft is not known in being a consumers' company... Only Xbox seemed to be working, I don't know for how much long though.
