Twitch has announced changes regarding the limitations on video highlights and uploads, with channels being limited to a maximum of 100 hours of combined videos starting from April 19 onwards. Any channel exceeding the 100-hour limit by April 19 may have videos removed.
Highlights are snippets edited from live streams for viewers to recap interesting moments, while uploads encompass any additional videos uploaded to the channel. Twitch specifies that the 100-hour limit includes both published and unpublished videos but excludes Past Broadcasts (VODs) and Clips, which have their own deletion schedules.
According to Twitch, less than 0.5% of streamers have been affected by the 100-hour limit, with all notified to manage their desired videos accordingly.
