They are not taxed. Donations are the same as tips. Do restaurants tax their tip earnings? No.

Restaurants don't tax anything. The government does.

In fact, if you've ever actually paid your taxes from a "regular job," you would know there's a box on a W4 form that covers the amount you earned from tips.

How to report Twitch Cheers, Facebook Stars, and other tips: If your viewers reward a victory royale with a tip or Cheer on Twitch, Super Chat on YouTube Gaming or a Star on Facebook Gaming, youre required to report it as revenue on your taxes. Though some online tips may be referred to as donations, please note that because the monetary gift was made to you and not to a nonprofit organization, this donation is still taxable by federal law.

Yeah, they absolutely are taxed, man.

DSP got in trouble for not counting all of his earnings in taxes, after all.

It's just weird to just assume income from twitch streams wouldn't be taxed, imo
