People are being cautious, that's all. It's easier to brute-force a password with a hash and a salt than it is to do without them.

People were saying "reset your password" as soon as they saw they saw the headline "Twitch Leak." Which is perfectly fair and probably good advice.

That being said, I haven't even seen it confirmed that the leak contained passwords or user data.

Edit: Twitch says "At this time, we have no indication that login credentials have been exposed." https://blog.twitch.tv/en/2021/10/06/updates-on-the-twitch-s...
