Mixer CEO takes a jab at Twitch\u2019s inconsistent TOS Twitch \/ MixerMixer CEO Matt Salsamendi took a shot at how Twitch has ambiguous rules while his own platform has much less of a grey area for streamers and viewers. Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2018 Blevins\u2019 surprise announcement that he was ditching Twitch and going to Mixer has brought a lot of new eyes to Microsoft\u2019s streaming platform. Twitch has long been criticized for its handling of the platform, especially when it comes to banning users. This has been brought into the limelight due to the Alinity cat tossing controversy. In a livestream clip that was captured by Rod \u2018Slasher\u2019 Breslau, Salsamendi touched upon how Twitch is struggling with enforcement while Mixer tries to be more clear about things. \u201cTwitch has struggled with enforcement for a long time. One thing we did early on was make our rules of conduct as clear and objective as possible,\u201d he said.\u201d You know if you\u2019re doing something right or wrong, there\u2019s not really a grey area.\u201d Mixer CEO @MattSalsamendi on Twitch moderation “”Twitch has struggled with enforcement for a long time..one thing we did early on was make our rules of conduct as clear and objective as possible. you know if you’re doing something right or wrong, there’s not really a grey area.”” pic.twitter.com\/vhQM52bXWO \u2014 Rod Breslau (@Slasher) August 2, 2019 While all of that may be true, some have pointed out that Mixer has a very strict clothing policy, mainly aimed at women. It requires women to show little to no cleavage, among several other things, if they want the ability to keep their \u201cfamily-friendly\u201d tag active on their stream.

As more eyes come to Mixer than ever because of Ninja being permanently on the platform, it\u2019s important for the platform to have a clear set of rules and guidelines. So far so good for Ninja\u2019s debut as he revealed he has over 500,000 subscribers, although they are free for the first two months. If he\u2019s able to keep it up once viewers are forced to pay will be something to keep an eye on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
