The problem was Paizo upended the paradigm of 3e in response to 4e and started taking bites out of the flank of its host instead of keeping it healthy - cloning the product leading to direct competition. The content creators for 5e (some more than others) spend time hammering WotC for every decision because it fills air time and generates click.
I don’t follow. This is caused by Paizo in your opinion? Something that predates social media influencers by a few years? If that’s what you’re saying here, that a pretty spotty argument.
As for the content creators, I have no problem with WotC simply not supporting certain streamers who seem driven by outrage videos. Same goes for any of them that don’t honor NDAs. (Of course, they have clear NDAs, yes? With clear communication, yes?) There’s been at least one consistent bad actor who they continue going back to that I’ve long since blocked.
