Can it Boomer :P

Wanting to partner with Facebook in any way is the "Boomer" in this equation. It's like wanting to partner with myspace or geocities.

The problem today is people get used to a platform and simply will not swap no matter what they do, this leads to a total monopoly. If Microsoft could not do it, nobody can.

Imo they should make new laws to force these core companies into a backbone supplier system, so other 3rd party companies can offer customized UI, customized content etc services of the platform to users. Twitter, google, youtube, twitch etc just offer their platform to other companies who then supply the end users. This would allow anything goes on all the platforms with almost no restrictions and the 3rd party companies offer users the experience they want.

Google, Twitch etc would only make the money they can charge 3rd party companies and so want as many different ones as possible. The 3rd party companies make their money from ads, subscriptions or whatever.

Pretty much how the electric / telephone systems work.

I mean the big problem with trying to make a competitor to twitch/youtube/twitter/etc is you need to pull a ton of people who already post to those platforms in order to compete.

Just using Twitch as an example, most people have a handful of streams they actively watch. If one of those streamers leaves to stream on Mixer or FB, most of their viewers won't care. They won't actively be like where's XxX_1337Gamer_XxX, they'll just watch one of the other streamers that they follow. So sure you have XxX_1337Gamer_XxX but you don't have his viewers and they're the important part. And, of course, none of the platforms are going to willingly do something like enable cross site hosts since they want to keep everyone in their system. If Mixer lets you host Twitch but Twitch doesn't allow the opposite, that only hurts mixer.

The only way I can really see stuff working nicely with all the platforms is for things to be federated. But I don't think laws can properly do that. Stuff just moves so damn fast in 6 months one company would probably make something that just obsoletes whatever legal solution people come up with.

Channel Awesome and several others have tried to unite content creators but due to human greed, failures, and burn out (and throw in some illegal activities) and those groups all end up dying (or on an ongoing life support trying to keep doing the same old things even though they are all 15 years older than when they started).

I don't watch streamers at all, but produced videos with edits and such (and the off-screen talent making images and doing edits) are basically a similar animal.

This won't really change much, in the end. The same people in power will keep promoting people at the top (unless they have to slap them on the wrist for any scandal).

This guy (who I highly recommend) has a decent take on the situation.
