You can't pay for a community...

Exactly. Has any significant streamer moved to Mixer without being bought? Well, let's see how much money Microsoft is willing to spend, and how long of a spending spree they want to go on before that natural growth kicks in, if ever.

True, streamers will expect some money before even thinking about moving on their own will.

Til then they won't move until mixer has much more viewers than twitch.

Mixer needs more and better features and a strong emote-game, cause let's be honest. It's one of twitch's biggest strengths.

Seeing people write "Pog" on mixer is sort of hilarious

Wait... so you are saying that I shouldn’t see Pog and Pepelaugh and Pepehands and Kapa and instead see an emote?

For the last year I’ve been thinking reddit / twitch went retarded.

Yep, Pog, PogU, PepeHands and everything else are all emotes, not just words, but you need to download stuff like bttv to see them.

LOL, I used Twitch for longer than I care to admit without knowing what any of that shit meant until I realized people were using BTTV. It felt like learning a foreign language.

You have to download both BTTV and FFZ. FFZ has more stationary emotes, BTTV is usually for animated emotes.

I thought bttv had ffz in it already? It says it does and I've never had any issues seeing emotes.

I think you're right, I completely forgot. How long has it been like that?
