1.) Start stream.
2.) Ask chat for recommendations of videos or topics to watch together.
3.) Get flooded with recommendations.
4.) Randomly pick one that sounds modestly interesting.
5.) Go to youtube, punch in subject. Get flooded with options on the topic.
6.) Watch video together. Get flooded with comments. Occasionally pause video and regurgitate a funny comment.

I don't care about all that. I only care if they're doing shit like pushing gambling addictions on people. That's what immoral money is. Not just cause it's easy.

If he wants to get into that. There's people in other countries (and also probably here too) who make 10s of thousands a month uploading bits of his streams before he can.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


You ever go to newest videos and watched something so unpolished it feels like you're intruding? Even though they put it up for you to see. When it's too unpolished it feels like you're just looking through a random window of a random house. I don't like it.

For those who actually treat it as a real job, they're definitely doing way more behind the scenes than just that. There definitely exist a small subset of really lucky ones who can basically just shoot the shit doing nothing, but that's basically the A-listers of streaming.

Part of it is luck, and part of it is the ability to entertain people in some way or another. If people notice your stream, but your stream isn't any good, they're not going to keep watching.

This is a dumb topic.

Would have been better if you streamed it.

11) shill for Raid Shadow Legends and Nord VPN, because youtube pays terribly and probably demonetized you anyway.

This honestly reads like you want to be a streamer but arent charismatic and / or good-looking enough to pull it off, so youre lashing out at those who are able to do it out of jealousy and anger.

Stream anyway.

If you demand to be paid for your hobby, it's not a hobby anymore.

I never understood this. I never understood how people are paying each other to watch basic ass video streams.

Saw a new one to add

-when you're offline, set your stream to rebroadcast a recent or old stream and reap the views from that as well
