It's not an age thing - I watch a few game streams a week and I'm older than you. But the most popular streamers are an age thing - they overreact to everything because their target audience is literal children and that's what kids like. Kids bring in the big bucks because they have endless freetime and are willing to watch the same thing forever.
Some people are ridiculously good at games and it's cool to watch. That's your speedrunners, competitive gamers, and Kaizo Mario players. Personally I don't understand watching a speedrunner grind out runs either, so if you like them enough to watch them sometimes, I recommend randomizer races. It's like being into sports. Here's my fave doing ALTTPR.. There's also a channel that has more commentated races than you could possibly watch (pick at random until you like the commentators lol).
this age thing is true, the mtg community, where most prominent people are in their late 20s to late 30s, has very few toxic edgy streamers (i guess the worst "offender" would be deathsie, and maybe crokeyz but i don't think our best irish fella is toxic at all)
some of their best players are also trans/non-binary, so it keeps the edgy chuds away - we actually made a bolsominion chud outright stop playing in our LGS when he made pissy comments about autumn's PT win :chavez-salute:
we see a similar dynamic in WoW, and i also expect its audience to be a bit older (which in WoW's case unfortunately has made the game itself worse because capitalism sucks, but that's another matter)
