With technology and internet being a part of human life, new occupational groups have started to emerge in recent years. Publishers on many platforms such as Twitch and Youtube create their own fields and perform them as a profession. So much so that this profession had become very popular during the epidemic.

Broadcast audience decreased by 8 percent in the first quarter of 2022

Streaming platforms have gained great momentum in the past two years. So much so that it was noticed by everyone that the closure process that came with the coronavirus was effective in this increase. However, the recent increase in the rate of vaccination and the subsequent decrease in cases seems to have reduced the interest in the publications, albeit small.

According to a report by StreamLabs, popular streaming platforms have been observed to be on a downward trend. In the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of 8 percent was observed compared to the same period of the previous year. In the report, it was argued that the situation was directly related to the normalization process.

On the other hand, Twitch’s superiority stands out in the broadcasting world. So much so that the platform dominates this field by holding 91.5 percent of all streaming hours. On the other hand, Twitch was the only platform to experience quarterly growth despite the partial reduction of the coronavirus effect.
