"Originally announced back in July, YouTube's live leaderboards list the most engaged viewers within a broadcast, ranked by "XP," which is a cumulative score based on how many comments, Super Chat, Super Stickers, and/or gifts that each viewer has submitted during a stream. One of the main pieces of feedback we heard from creators is that you would like to be able to opt out of the leaderboard experience, either before or during a live stream. We're happy to share that this is now possible."
"When creating a stream on web, deselect the checkbox leaderboard within the live chat section. And during a live stream on web, creators can use the 'Edit' option to customize the stream and deselect the leader board option. So now, creators can switch off this display, which can presumably be a distraction during some stream types. Though ideally, it will also help to drive more donations, and thus revenue for creators."
YouTube's live leaderboards rank the most engaged viewers by "XP," a cumulative score based on comments, Super Chat, Super Stickers, and gifts submitted during a stream. Creators can now opt out of the leaderboard when creating a stream on web by deselecting the leaderboard checkbox in the live chat section. During an active web stream, creators can use the 'Edit' option to remove the leaderboard display. Turning off the leaderboard can reduce distractions and may affect donation dynamics and revenue. Some creators criticize the feature as commoditizing viewers and raising privacy and exposure concerns. YouTube also renamed the "Copyright" tab to "Content Detection" in YouTube Studio.
