The claim is a major departure for the service, which has long been known as a destination for posting short snippets of text.

The microblogging platform that once limited posts to 140 characters is now a "video-first" platform?

If Twitter's a video-first platform, then Twitch is a text-first platform.

Just like that and with way fewer engineers somehow.

I don't see a problem as long as the videos are capped at 140 characters
