nekrodev 04/23/24 11:20:10 AM #23:	I don't really understand the twitch / streamer thing anyway. There's almost nothing more boring to me than watching someone else play video games. I've followed some streamers, especially smaller ones who were cool people hang out w/ occasionally, but once you get over a certain size, it's just so fake and lame, imo. I'm sure a lot of the reasons others have mentioned definitely contribute, but I dunno how any streamer gets as big as they do, tbh. --- "To be, or not to be - there is no such question. To be!
