There’s always a niche. Nobody thought anyone would care enough to watch them play video games badly but here we are. Really if you set a cam in your league and have half funny commentators who know their stuff people would watch.
Look at speed running too, it’s even more niche than just playing games and it gets millions of dollars a year too.
Yup. That’s why I only watch one Twitch streamer (seems to not care about than nonsense) and a dozen or so YouTube channels (most are also decent). I’ve tried watching the more mainstream channels, and it’s pure cancer.
I agree, the concept in general is incredibly annoying and why I am actively looking for alternatives elsewhere. I’d much prefer a model like Nebula (signup is $5/month) or Odysee (platform fees; Odysee channels set their own prices). Or maybe a pay-per-watch micropayment option through something like GNU Taler (let me watch the first 30s or so for free, then pay to continue).
But the current ad and public tip model just encourages distasteful behavior.
At this point Twitch slowly but surely became OnlyFans 2.0
