It might be a protest but it's also a move to preserve their revenue stream -- ads baked into their content -- which is now (soon?) forbidden on the Twitch platform.
Indeed, the streamers decision to leave twitch can be seen as a form of protest against the new advertising rules. By moving to alternative platforms, they are not only expressing their dissatisfaction but also taking steps to protect their revenue streams. With the restriction on embedding ads into their content, which has been a common practice for many streamers, they are seeking platforms that provide more flexibility in terms of monetization. This move reflects their concerns about the potential impact of the new policy on their ability to generate income from their content.
