Doesn't matter. Do you know why waste of air like QxC or whatever his name is has so many viewers? It's because once a streamer starts landing 10k+ a solid portion join that stream because it is where the cool kids are and more people means something interesting to much of the drone viewership

Once you get into mega view territory, you’re basically a brand unto itself. The strength of your personal brand will dictate what you do on stream. Guys like Ninja tied their brand too much to one game and when the game fell out of favor, so did their brand.

Guys like XQC or Soda or Asmongold do more variety stuff now and are the draw themselves usually. They can entertain the audience with a wider range of things.

Large viewer counts on any given stream can sometimes draw in people to see what is going on (just like irl - if you see a large crowd looking at something, you usually are curious what they are looking at), but large views aren’t sustainable long term unless you’re putting out something the audience likes on a consistent basis and continues to come back for

Oh the new metas allowed will be putting something out for sure.
It probably won't mess with what I watch mostly which is fishing and dinosaur stuff.

Oh that’s a cool find. Can’t watch it now, but what do they do on that stream? Just discuss paleontology news or do they actually do stuff with real fossils too?

You could watch it just fine. It’s not like you’re going to watch it then suddenly the stream turns into a dildosaurus fighting a twerkodon

He is very G rated as is chat, it is well moderated. Sometimes he goes on digs where they spend months in a tent just slowly chipping away rock around bones.
Interesting fact, most dino sites are on protected federal land. They get grants to remove the bones but the bones go to Gov sites after processing by science teams as they own the bones.
He is by all appearances a good guy. Shame you can't lock channels on Twitch for such things like kid viewership.
He teaches college level classes so while he has lots of 3d printed dinos around to show, more often the streams are like lessons and questions into the history and age. I find it great background noise while doing stuff and still pick up some things I didn't know.

He uses starlink on the digs.

Yup. Thursday is Birdsday and birds are dinos.
He is a teacher and digger. Great background listening.

Shame they can't be intellectually honest and simply ban sexual content instead of playing fuck fuck games.

Why don't they just put a NSFW category and throw all the degenerate shit in there. Problem solved.

As of right now this whole category is ranked 27th and the top streams in it have 600 viewers. Clearly, honest god fearing gamers face an existential crisis...

They'll take a hit. The real meta and invasion hasn't even began yet. Go jerk off to some more anime while we wait Sila.

If that is the tiny minority they are catering to then why not just ban the shit? What the fuck is so hard for you morons to understand about not kowtowing to a infinitesimal fraction of your user base?
