Having shared his struggles with YouTube since switching to the platform, fans were eager to hear if Ludwig thought the move was a \u201cmistake.\u201d Sykkuno shocked fans on May 2 after announcing that he had signed an exclusive contract with YouTube Gaming. As a result, it meant he would be leaving his 4 million followers on Twitch. One streaming giant who similarly rocked the community after switching to YouTube was Ludwig, who has certainly enjoyed some highs and lows since the change. For example, while his recent all-star poker livestream proved incredibly successful, he has also been hit with several DMCA-related bans in the past. Ludwig has now shared his thoughts about Sykkuno\u2019s big announcement and whether his fellow streamer has made a \u201cmistake\u201d with the change. Ludwig praises Sykkuno for YouTube move On May 3, Ludwig broke down why he thought Sykkuno had made a good decision leaving Twitch for YouTube. Although he ultimately praised Sykkuno for the move, he also weighed up the pros and cons of streaming for both platforms. \u201cSykkuno makes a lot of sense for the switch. I think he has friends on here like me and like Valkyrae and his content mostly revolves around him gaming\u2026He has a loyal fanbase.\u201d However, Ludwig argued that streamers like Mizkif and Hasan would \u201cstruggle\u201d on YouTube due to the fact they produce a lot of \u2018react\u2019 content that is \u201cdead\u201d on the platform. He claimed: \u201cIf you\u2019re a reactor and that\u2019s your main content, YouTube just doesn\u2019t, at the moment, have a hospitable place for you.\u201d Ludwig claims he is \u201chappy\u201d he moved to YouTube Ludwig didn\u2019t hold back in sharing the struggles he still has on YouTube. This included issues with the site\u2019s layout to help viewers find a livestream and the problems for creators trying to upload them. Yet, while his livestream views have wavered, Ludwig claimed that his video views have enjoyed huge success on the platform since the change. Not only that, but Ludwig said he now enjoys \u201ca better overall lifestyle\u201d and that he was \u201chappy\u201d he switched to YouTube. Particularly, due to the fact, that he was no longer \u201cfunded by viewers.\u201d \u201cOverall, I\u2019m very happy with the move and I\u2019ve got to do a lot of f*cking cool things that I would never be able to do normally,\u201d Ludwig said. \u201cI think Sykkuno made a really good decision and I\u2019m excited for him to be on YouTube.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ludwig responds to Sykkuno moving to YouTube: \u201cIs it a mistake?\u201d YouTube: Mogul Mail\/Twitch: SykkunoLudwig \u2018Ludwig\u2019 Ahgren has shared his take on the surprise announcement that Twitch streamer \u2018Sykkuno\u2019 is leaving the platform for YouTube.
