2 years ago today, we launched Beam. We set out to build a platform where every streamer can build a community around their passion and every viewer has a voice. I'm so proud of the progress we've made, and the journey's not over. Let's make 2018 the best year yet.

Today we updated the Mixer homepage algorithm with some important changes to featuring. Once featured, there’s now a 1 week cooldown before a channel can be featured again. This means more content featured each day, and more up and coming broadcasters getting love. <3

A few calling for us to come back or a new platform started, but I don’t think those things solve this. No single person or policy can. Change starts with empowering voices to be heard and people around them responding. This problem exists across company lines. It’s up to us.

Many are filled with sadness at today's announcement and it's valid to feel that way. When people ask me how I'm feeling I feel weird/wrong saying I'm ok. What I've realized is it's a privilege to be in a position to be able to look back on what we've done with joy.
