YouTube
Facebook

I’m somewhat familiar with YouTube and how their incentives work. You get paid by the number of subs you have in lieu of each sub you obtain like twitch. But what does Facebook offer you? Anyone ever tried it on Facebook?

If you're talking about for purely gaming, twitch is unmatched

Edit: But no one is going to watch you on any of these platforms

For gaming, yes. Most of the top gaming youtube videos are edited from twitch streams.

Twitch started as purely a game streaming site for gamers it's still by far the best.

Since Amazon bought it the culture is slowly but surely changing to make it just a more mainstream corporate live-streaming site.

But even despite that it's still mostly game centric

If your looking to make money, get viewers, then twitch is your #1 spot

If your just looking to stream and give no fricks, youtube is an option.


Also, if you end up streaming, don't be stupid and get all pissy when the morons come in and call you names. Be smart, like Lyric did, let them call you all the names they want, say what they want, but it costs them $3-$5 a pop to say it.

I've watched 30 straight messages to him at $5 a pop, all call him homo and other names, and i was like bravo, take that $$$, who gives a frick what kiddies and basement dwellers say about you. They are actually paying you to call you the name, who's the dumbshit??

Twitch.

I usually get less comprised stream from Twitch. I'm not the biggest fan of YouTube's compression.

I was impressed with Mixer, but Twitch is just light-years ahead with the viewer count.

It's good multiple platforms exist.

I welcome them all.

I watched Doc the other day on Twitch for the first time in awhile. Starting off I had to watch about a minute worth of ads then probably 3-5 mins later in the middle of his gameplay I was hit with probably 2-3 minutes worth of ads before it went back.

Is it always like this? Seemed a bit much

I laugh when streamers get all sensitive to the trolls.

Let them pay you to troll you.


I never see ads, Ad blocker is nailz for youtube and twitch for ads.
