“Both of our teams have a shared mission to support streamers, and the industry is better when we can all work together,” Jim said. We appreciate them acting quickly to remedy the situation and look forward to working together to benefit the streaming community. Over the past weeks, we’ve had positive conversations with and are happy to have reached a path forward. These talks centered around building trust and partnership through transparent conversation, according to a post from OBS, which have led to both sides agreeing on a plan to move forward. Now, more than a month after the initial backlash and Streamlabs going silent on all social media, the OBS team provided an update today on its portion of the controversy, with one of OBS’ most prominent developers Hugh “Jim” Bailey noting that there have been ongoing discussions between the Streamlabs and OBS teams over the last several weeks. When concerns about the blatant similarities between the two programs and the marketing arose, former employees and other companies in the streaming space followed up by highlighting instances of unethical practices from Streamlabs, including allegations from the Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) team, which works on and maintains the open-source platform. Last month, leading livestreaming software and tools provider Streamlabs was accused of copying promotional images, formatting, reviews, and even some key features of another platform after it announced the launch of web-based broadcasting studio Streamlabs Studio.
