Reception

Alexandra Del Rosario, writing for Deadline Hollywood, described Doja Cat's performance of "Say So" and a segment dedicated to the Black Lives Matter movement as highlights of the night. According to Kelly Kozakevich of MediaVillage, the show had "a plethora of stand out moments" including spotlight segments by activist Amber Whittington on racial justice and Jay Shetty on depression, anxiety and mental health, and the Creator Honor awards which she called "a heartfelt addition to the show". She also praised the musical performances and "Streamy 10 Flashback" segments which showcased memorable moments from previous Streamy Awards ceremonies.
