this looks interesting, potential proper monetisation like the youtube partner can only be a good thing, we will need to wait and see how it functions in reality though, as we have seen with X/twitters attempts it seems a bit random, nothing has come close to the YT partner prorgramme which is surprising as its super impressive! WOuld be good for Youtube to get some proper competition too!

They definitely have the userbase to support a program like this, and more competition amongst the big platforms could be a good thing for creators! Hopefully it'll push them to offer a better cut of the revenue, rather than fighting for huge contracts for the top creators!

Interesting, I guess we have to wait and see how it goes.

I'm not sure about pushing people to make different content. TikTok is 99% the short videos in vertical format. Live streaming is cool, because there is tons of content which can be enjoyed like that, but I couldn't imagine watching an FFXIV raid stream in vertical format as you don't get to see at least half of the arena and the people positioned there. It's fine for some highlights where you can crop the view to show an epic moment, but not for a full stream session. And I'm sure there are many other games with the same issue, where you would really have to see the full view for the proper experience.

I can see how that would limit the viewing experience. They're probably thinking primarily lifestyle / vlogging, but it doesn't seem best fit for gaming content.

Mobile gaming could translate well (if vertical) and that's the biggest gaming segment, but I hope the program will evolve to be more inclusive of PC or console gaming.
