Yeah, I was wrong about that. Moderators don't get paid by Twitch (but some do get paid by the channel[1]). But Twitch Admins do get paid by Twitch[2].

Interesting that Twitch is sort of flipped from what remote_phone is proposing. Mods are not paid, but content creators are paid.

While the comment insinuated they were paid by Twitch (Amazon), the reality is some of the biggest channels _do_ pay their channel moderators (creator to mods). A big example of this is CohhCarnage[0].
