Twitch's operating costs too high to continue in South Korea

I posed a question last week asking what you would do if your main platform went away. Well it turns out that's become a reality in South Korea!

Twitch has been operating at a loss for years due to high network costs, and evidently it's no longer sustainable. South Korea has a massive creator economy, so the loss of a streaming giant like Twitch will no doubt be a huge blow.

All credit to Twitch though, as they're stepping up and helping streamers move to alternative services.
