Gamers say they're earning more money on Facebook's streaming platform than on Twitch and YouTube.

Gaming is a $120 billion industry, and live video game streaming constitutes a growing slice. Twitch pioneered the idea of a game-streaming platform, with YouTube and Microsoft's Mixer emerging as its major competitors. Now, Facebook Gaming is coming out as a force of its own, and streamers who have switched to Facebook's platform have noticed they can get more subscribers quicker.

I was offered level-up with FacebookGaming on launch, and it took me a year to earn $120 Moved to Twitch (March) and earned $100+ every month until I moved to WatchMixer 24th August, where I hit $100 within 2 weeks and again in September.

Hmmm, interesting 🤔
