According to the LinkedIn company profile, a little over 13 thousand. I don't know how reliable of a number that is.

That’ll be a lot of people who are streamers on twitch with it listed on their LinkedIn profile. I’d ballpark closer to 2,000 actual employees — maybe 1,500 as a conservative estimate.
Glassdoor and Owler both say Twitch has between 1,000 and 5,000 employees. Your ballpark is in the ... errr... ballpark.
so laying off 20%-26% of staff. wowzers.
Recent history has shown us that behind every 10 thousand strong tech team, stands twenty engineers maintaining the entire stack.

edit: downvote all you want, but it is clear that there is so much fluff in a tech company 2023
