How long did your Discover review actually take?


Genuine question for anyone who's been through it — I'm trying to work out what's normal.


We submitted three listings on Aug 21. It's now Sept 3. Thirteen days, all three still "Pending review for Discover". No rejection, no request for changes, no signal of any kind.


Support has been honest with me, which I appreciate: they've told me plainly they can't see the backend state of a listing, and that there's no escalation path for one sitting in manual review, no matter how long it's been. So nobody can tell me whether my listings are in a queue or fell out of one. From the outside those look identical.


So I'd rather ask people who've actually done it:


• How long did yours take from submission to approved?

• Did you get a notification when it moved, or did you just notice the status change?

• Has anyone had one sit two weeks or more and then go through fine?


Context in case it matters: products are live and taking payments, checklist complete, nothing flagged on our end. We're a 24/7 cloud streaming tool, and support mentioned early on that anything pushing automated streams to third-party platforms gets extra scrutiny. If that's a slower lane, I'd genuinely like to know, and I'll stop refreshing the page.


Not a complaint. I just want a benchmark so I can plan instead of guess.

Twitch cuts every continuous broadcast at 48 hours. Here's what we actually measured.


If you've ever tried running a 24/7 channel, it dies and you never find out why. It isn't your encoder and it isn't your internet. Twitch ends the ingest at the 48-hour mark. No warning, no email, nothing in the dashboard.


We run PulseCast (24/7 cloud streaming) so I pulled the numbers from our own production logs:


• The cut lands at 48h, every time, on every channel

• Reconnection measured at 5.7 seconds — 5 to 8s in practice

• It stays fast rather than degrading: any uptime over 60 seconds resets the backoff counter, so a 48h stream always re-enters the retry ladder at the bottom


Two other things worth knowing if you run one of these:


• YouTube flags short repetitive loops as inauthentic under the 2025 monetisation rules. Use a long file, not a 15-second one.

• Kick has almost no competition in music and ambience compared to YouTube right now. Same file, emptier room.


Posting this because most people hit the 48h wall, assume they broke something, and give up. They didn't break anything.

PulseCast — affiliate program is open. 40% recurring, for life.


We stream a video 24/7 to YouTube, Twitch, Kick or any RTMP — straight from the cloud. Upload once, paste a stream key, done. No PC left on, no OBS, no VPS.


What you earn:

• Starter $19/mo → $7.60/mo recurring

• Pro $29/mo → $11.60/mo recurring

• Cash bonuses: 10 sales = $100 · 25 = $300 · 50 = $750


Why it converts: it monetises content people have ALREADY made. A 24/7 rerun channel keeps a streamer visible while they're offline — nothing new to produce. SypherPK, TypicalGamer and others already run official 24/7 VOD channels, so the behaviour is proven. The tooling just wasn't.


Who to pitch: streamers, lofi and ambience channels, music labels, anyone running a 24/7 stream off a PC or a VPS today.


One more hook that closes people: Twitch cuts every continuous broadcast at 48 hours, with no warning. We reconnect automatically in about 6 seconds. Nobody has to get up at 4am.


Our own channels have run on it 24/7 across YouTube, Twitch and Kick for over a week.
