Alinity asks Elon Musk to buy Twitch

Following the news of the social media giant accepting Elon Musk's $44 billion deal was finalized, several reactions started to pour in from various branches of the internet.

Several streaming personalities and YouTubers like Dream, Memeulous, Charlie "MoistCr1TiKaL", and HasanAbi reacted to the billionaire's newest venture.

Famous Twitch streamer Alinity too reacted to the latest acquisition and made a sly comment about it. The 34-year-old Twitch streamer's tweet asking Elon Musk to buy Twitch attracted more than 120 comments in the initial hours of its posting.

According to some Twitter users, they wanted the backend technology of the livestreaming platform to improve and evolve.

Chozo Ninpo asked for better ways of managing the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) related things if Elon Musk somehow ended up buying Twitch.

In a reply to the Twitter user's message, others shared their opinions regarding Elon Musk's interest in buying out the social media giant.

Some community members wanted Chance "Sodapoppin" to be unbanned from the platform. Sodapoppin was handed his second ban from the livestreaming platform earlier this month. It is speculated that he is serving at least 14 days of the ban period.

Some of them switched the conversation around to Alinity and asked how she hasn't been permanently banned from the platform.

A few of the community members thought that the current parent company of Twitch, Amazon, wouldn’t let go of the purple platform.

Fans also tried to speculate on the reason for Dr DisRespect's long ban from the platform.

Many people thought that the Twitch streamer's idea was good.
