A month after live streaming software and tools provider Streamlabs was accused of copying promotional images, formatting, reviews, and even some key features of another platform for its web-based broadcasting studio, Streamlabs Studios, Open Broadcaster Software (OBS), which works on and maintains the open-source platform, came forward to discuss the changes that are being made.
“Both of our teams have a shared mission to support streamers, and the industry is better when we can all work together,” said Hugh “Jim” Bailey, one of OBS’ most prominent developers. “We are happy to have Streamlabs support the project in the long-term so we can continue to build tools for the community. We would like to thank the team at Streamlabs for listening and taking immediate action to resolve the issues that led to the current situation. While past actions cannot be changed, we look forward to a fresh start.”
Streamlabs already noted it was going to immediately begin work to remove the OBS portion from its platform’s branding in a statement on November 17th, which has mostly been completed as the program is now called Streamlabs Desktop.
In its first post on Twitter since November 17th, Streamlabs thanked the OBS team for its open discussions and hard work, reiterating that the goal of the platform has always been to “serve creators.”
