Twitch CEO Steps Down After More Than a Decade: What This Means for the Future of Livestreaming
34In a surprise announcement, Twitch CEO Emmett Shear has revealed that he is leaving the platform after more than a decade working with the livestreaming site, now owned by Amazon. Shear will continue to work with Twitch in an advisory role, while Dan Clancy, the current Twitch President, will take over as CEO. In his farewell post, Shear expressed his gratitude to the streamers who trusted Twitch with their content and communities. During Shear's time as CEO, Twitch grew exponentially, but faced increased competition from platforms such as YouTube and Facebook Gaming. While some streamers have criticized Twitch for its lower subscription revenue split, the site provides other ways for them to monetize their content, such as through ads. Shear's successor will face many challenges to keep Twitch competitive in a rapidly changing market.
