The company has also been accused of copying from its competitor Lightstream Streamlabs OBS, a leading company for live-streaming software, is removing the phrase “OBS” from its name after facing criticism from multiple sources, including popular streamers and other companies.
On Tuesday, the company also faced allegations that it had copied its website descriptions and design from a competitor called Lightstream.
Popular streamers Hasan “Hasanabi” Piker and Imane “Pokimane” Anys called the company out, with Piker threatening to “never use” Streamlabs again if the company didn’t resolve the matter.
Its software is built off of a different open-source software called OBS (Open Broadcaster Software), which came before it.
