Interesting. I wonder how people get to that point, you know? Nobody would tune in to watch Mr. Joaomarrom rambling on twitch. What does it take to make people want to hear what I have to say, to the point where they're actively giving me money for my opinions?
I suppose the same could be asked about any podcast or any public figure. Man I wish people would just pay to watch me speak to the computer.

Yeah I've realized lately that opening a Twitch account and pointing a camera at yourself is for suckers. Obviously a couple people succeeded from that, but hardly anyone. Mostly absolute baddies btw
I kind of wanted to stream games a few years ago but I realized it's really such a waste of time for the audience, which is why they don't watch you. If you are insanely good at whatever you're doing, people might watch you to witness the prowess. If you aren't insanely good, you're asking people to watch you for 8 hours so that they can see one hilarious thing spontaneously happen for 10 seconds. It's not worth it! That's shit entertainment.
So at that point I created a tiktok and started posting just the 10 second clips. People like that. I just play games with OBS running and slam F8 when something interesting happens. And then go trim and edit the video later. Everyone saves so much time that way. Sometimes I'll intentionally produce a video, but that's like 5-10% of my videos.
Now if I wanted to stream I would have a huge advantage over someone just starting out - if I published a video saying I'm about to stream, it probably wouldn't perform very good at all, maybe 500 views, and maybe 10 people would click through to the stream, and maybe some of my followers would have the stream pop up in their tiktok feed, so maybe I'd get 15, 20, 50 people tops. As opposed to starting a Twitch and having 0, 1, or 2 viewers for literally months. That's such a dramatically easier starting position
Part of the argument is depending on the game doing people just stream the time they are farming clips for tiktok like you do. And twitch viewers represent a much larger amount of $ per viewer. $ per viewer is such a slimy way of framing it. Also it can be fun idk I streamed for a bit to like 5-20 people for a couple months. I was chilling between semesters but it was chill idk.
Oh yeah I don't wanna bash that at all, I'm really only talking about trying to launch it as a job, which many people do, and also just doing that and not having a clip channel outside of twitch.
TikTok and YouTube Shorts are the absolute worst for making money, you can literally only make good money if you have a mass-appeal mindless video channel on there, and you're incredibly skilled and lucky, but they're good for getting followers and viewers
