Basing ‘peak’ of a streaming service on a time when people were forced to be indoor seems like a bad metric. They (probably/hopefully) won’t see that rate of growth organically, but that doesn’t mean that it’s the peak.

I was responding to the OP statement (and source with 2021 as the last data point) that "Viewership growth seems good".

Lockdowns were in 2020, not 2021.

Yes, April 2020 gave a huge bump to Twitch and the pandemic obviously had a large impact on the following years. Twitch had really good growth.

But look at the sources I linked. Looks to me like viewership has been down every year since 2021.
