Twitch co-founder Kevin Lin will depart from the company. Lin, who served as the popular streaming platform's COO from 2008 to 2018, made the announcement in a Medium post.

He recounted his experience with Twitch and thanked everybody involved in Twitch's journey. Lin did not explicitly state what his next career plans were, but instead commented that he will be "spending time with family and loved ones, some sleep and relaxation, some fitness, and of course, a lot of video games."

Twitch won't be Lin's final adventure in the tech sector, however. He stated, "I'm so excited to stretch my curiosity and to continue exploring a world where technology is a positive amplifier in our lives. I will build again. I hope to create something as remarkable as Twitch again, to build with amazing people who will challenge me, and to make the world we experience better."
