Late last month, Microsoft revealed that it was shutting down its Mixer streaming service on July 22 and teaming up with Facebook to enable to the Mixer community to transition to Facebook Gaming. Now, some Xbox Insiders have noticed Mixer features have already been removed from their consoles.
This was alluded to in a recent Xbox Wire update for Xbox Insiders in the Beta, Delta and Omega rings, which mentioned that "users may see some Mixer features missing from the console," including the app itself, references to Mixer streaming, party co-stream capabilities and more.
Microsoft says that Insiders who want to continue using Mixer until July 22nd can opt out of Xbox Insider flight rings, with all Mixer sites and apps set to redirect to Facebook's service as of that date.
Has Mixer disappeared for you yet? Sad to see it go? Let us know in the comments.

👋 Mixer. I never used you even once.
(To be fair, I have never used Twitch either. I’d rather spend my time playing games than watching online people play them.)
@Grot
Same here. I am an old man too. 😂
I haven’t been on any social media in years. I do watch YouTube a lot for video game news.
