On Twitch, channels are set to accept raids from anybody by default, and while users can adjust this setting to only allow raids from “friends, teammates, and followed channels,” many do not. However, YouTube Live Redirects can only point to channels that subscribe to the streamer or have expressly added that channel to a permitted list from the start. Furthermore, only channels with over 1,000 followers and no active community guideline strikes are eligible to send a Live Redirect.
