Here\u2019s what they said and how fans reacted to it. Since each streamer chooses a site based on their viewership and the features it offers to their content, the streaming platform wars have persisted for some time. Two distinct platforms that enable producers and gamers to broadcast from a variety of devices be it phones, PCs, and consoles, Twitch and YouTube have so far dominated the field. On the other hand, quickly after their debut, Kick became well-known for their substantial revenue sharing with streamers and signed exclusive deals with prominent players like xQC, Adin Ross, and others. However, unlike the aforementioned platforms, social media sites like Facebook did not attract nearly as many viewers as they hoped. The idea of live streaming on X (formerly Twitter) has recently been brought by Elon Musk, who hopes to make it possible for users to broadcast material directly from their PCs or gaming consoles in the near future. Consequently, Kick has responded to Elon\u2019s ideas with a ferocity that has escalated the streaming battles. Kick savagely responds to Elon Musk\u2019s plans for X live streaming and monetization While sharing a post from Drama Alert on Elon Musk\u2019s plans for X live stream monetization, Kick\u2019s official X handle shared a shirtless image of the tech billionaire with the text \u201cA new foe has appeared!\u201d and \u201cChallenger Approaching\u201d written on it. The image was manipulated to resemble an enemy from a fighter game like Street Fighter and was followed by a quote from Kick that said, \u201cpls dont shadowban us elon im sorry\u201d, while mocking the X boss. Following the hilarious response several users turned in their comments with one user saying, \u201cCooked bro on his own platform.\u201d Another chimed in, \u201cYep but kick wins 1v2 as well #PickKick.\u201d A third user added, \u201cCompetition creates innovation. We saw it with Twitch when Kick was founded what\u2019s to say this doesn\u2019t create more innovation? Or it decimates all the competition. Who knows only time will tell.\u201d A fourth one commented, \u201cTbh the livestreams on X got barely watched. I think the GUI for this platform doesn\u2019t serve live streams any good at the moment. It needs to be revised then.\u201d While there has been no official roadmap of the upcoming live-streaming feature on X, Elon did stream Diablo 4 on the platform once to show the potential of what X can be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kick fires back at Elon Musk\u2019s plans for live streaming on X\/Twitter Elon Musk\/KICKStreaming platform Kick fires back at Elon Musk\u2019s plans for launching live streaming on X\/Twitter in the most savage way.
