Twitch you were great when I first joined in, now it is time to move on! Why KICK has a future
Its bad enough when a streaming platform like Twitch intends to screw up so many times that you know its not even funny! The fast sweet decline of Twitch, will only get worst over time.
First off I’ve enjoyed Twitch for many years since I joined the platform since 2014. That’s right, 2014!!! its been that long!
A long time ago there was a time that Twitch wasn’t use to be this bad. For some reason it could be that new staff and new management from the top that changed Twitch for the worst over time or, the Amazon buy out have change Things have shifted pretty quickly or, fact they’ve gone through Terrible changes with the TOS and bad announcements. Even the Twitch CEO Dan Clancy said and admitted they’ve fucked up. That’s why I’m coming back as a content creator as a viewer yes.
I’ve always enjoyed the glory days of Twitch, Today, its not the same experience from many years back what I remember!
After all the things
Kick-Streaming Tweeted back in February Kick Streaming has over a million followers which took them back in 69 Days! Very impressive coming from a website that started about a year ago, I started signing up with Kick around mid-June. I am not disappointed with the move. I do think I’ll grow on people over time, just like any website you’ll eventually get use to the UI and settings on Kick Streaming.
Netflix – 3.5 years
Facebook – 10 months
Spotify – 5 months
Kick – 69 Days 😏

Twitch Vs. Kick Streaming
To compare, I wanted to start with the UI!
- UI
Kick is very simplistic to navigate the website and easy to go around. While Twitch is very constructive and build well. Its convolve which makes the experience not fun get around.
- Mobile App
Let’s get right to Mobile UX, I’ll give Twitch props on easy mobility it is constructed well over the years. Kick hasn’t been around long enough and not matured enough. Kick is miss Airplay, Casting for anyone that wants to cast a stream on TV’s or Consoles; twitch has all the features that comes in the app. - Video Player
Not a lot I can go through the video player, I do like the video player on Twitch. Kick will need a lot of work. I’m sure by next year. Things will improve over time since Kick is still fresh to everyone’s mind. The player does have Clip features, just what you expect from Twitch’s player too.
