I have 150/50 fiber internet in brazil -- 50% of the time, i cannot watch a 1080p twitch stream, while i can watch a youtube livestream.

twitch infrastructure is notoriously bad for anyone that is not american.

Often twitch gets terrible for me until I load a VPN, and I'm in America. They're probably getting screwed on peering.
