With the introduction of Super Chat, Google is bidding farewell to an older platform called 'Fan Funding' the company launched back in 2014. Fan Funding aimed at letting viewers make voluntary payments to support their content creators directly. The company claims the failure of the feature to achieve widespread usage outside live streams was one of the reasons for its demise. Fan Funding will stop accepting new sign-ups today, but can continue to be used on enabled channels until February 28, when it will be discontinued.
