And people will pay it. If there’s anything I’ve learned over the past year, no matter how bad things get, some dumbass will pay. 99% of the population could be under water or on fire and that leftover 1% would still have guys trying to buy in game cosmetics and tipping Twitch streamers.
Unlike reddit gold, tipping streamers actually makes sense, though. It’s like throwing a couple bucks in the guitar case of a brusker…the person is entertaining you so you give them a few bucks as thanks. I don’t do watch streams but I get it.
This is how I view it too. I rarely spend money on twitch, but a sub or dono to someone who I’ve literally watched for hundreds of hours for essentially free doesn’t really seem like a problem to me.
