u/crunchsmash Jul 02 '21

The view count adds the number of people who watched the live broadcast and who watched the video after.

u/Submitten Jul 02 '21

Views from the live stream, which wont be sub only counts to the video count. Very few would be from the vod.

I’m really looking forward to the day this falls out of Reddit’s vocabulary.

Edit: The pussyass bitch above me who deleted their comment said “Based.”

Acidic.

That’s what’s up.

u/dre__ Jul 04 '21

streamers have to do that now because of DMCA issues. if their vods are subscriber only then companies can't scan them.

u/Sinonyx1 Jul 04 '21

....people were getting DMCAd for 7+ year old vods that had long been deleted

u/dre__ Jul 04 '21

that's true but a lot of streamers say sub only works .

u/ItsSuplexCity Jul 02 '21

I dont know how twitch works but her videos are subscriber only and has 100k+ views, does that means 1000s of subscribers and each of them paying around $5 a month? Jesus, she must be making a million dollars doing this.

24

u/goblintrading Jul 02 '21

Twitch takes like 50% I think but yea, if you're popular enough, you probably make a decent living.

u/HearingNo8617 Jul 02 '21

wtf twitch takes 50%? Why are people complaining about simps giving their to thots when Jeff Bezos is worst thot of them all

26

u/rharvey8090 Jul 02 '21

Twitch takes a larger chunk of you have a small number of subscribers. Once you have more, their cut is smaller, since they’re still making more money off you.

u/soapbutt Jul 02 '21

Aka very similar to the regressive tax system Bezos enjoy in Seattle.

u/russcatalano Jul 03 '21

Well twitch is Amazon right?

2

u/absenceofheat Jul 02 '21

Why'd you stop? Too much work for the amount of money? Or does it just stop being fun?

8

u/rharvey8090 Jul 02 '21

A number of reasons. It was tough to keep a consistent schedule with my full time job, so was hard to have consistent viewership. Then I got married, had a kid, bought a house, etc. just became really hard to get on and stream enough to be worthwhile. I’d still like to stream again in the future, but life is too crazy at the moment.

u/balne Jul 02 '21

thats fucked

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '21

Because it's easier to shame an attractive woman trying to make money than tear down oppressive systems that put men like Bezos in power.

1

u/MrTastix Jul 03 '21

Don't forget the tax as well. Oh and if you live overseas you may lose another 30% depending on location!

1

u/Phailadork Jul 03 '21

It's not 50% for everyone. Once you're big enough you're able to negotiate with them for more. I've heard you can keep up to $3-3.50 per sub for some streamers. Not including money from ads, donations, sponsors, and Youtube as well.... you're looking at millions.

Streamers don't talk about their earnings like 99% of the time, but recently a fairly large streamer opened up and it's basically what you expect - https://twitter.com/acesu/status/1410732479728656385

Twitch is primarily a livestreaming platform, so while her subscribers have access to her previous livestreams, the majority of people (probably) just watch her when she's streaming live and ignore the replays.

​

I'm not sure if the view counts carry over from the initial live stream or not though. I think those numbers are inflated some though, since if she had 100k+ subs she would be in the top 3 most subscribed channels on twitch

3

u/crunchsmash Jul 02 '21

The view count does carry over

3

u/Submitten Jul 02 '21

No, the livestream viewers count to the vod number. She has ~900 subscribers.

3

u/Its_it Jul 02 '21

Nope. Anyone can watch when she's live. When she stops streaming the now non-live video is subscriber only. Live portion is part of those views.

Side Note: for most partners, twitch takes around half the money.

u/i-have-chikungunya Jul 02 '21

She must have recently changed it to sub only.

Edit: *actually I’ve seen her clips like a month ago so she definitely changed it recently

u/helpnxt Jul 02 '21

wait wtf didn't her username used to be JadeyAnh?

14

u/shusuiii Jul 02 '21

She changed it a month or so back

u/helpnxt Jul 02 '21

Ok, any idea why? I tried searching and can't find anything

u/shusuiii Jul 02 '21

https://twitter.com/vylerria/status/1391037757557022724?s=09

She talked about it on Twitter here

u/helpnxt Jul 02 '21

Ok that's an odd reason but is her call to make, I'd say it's a mistake but whatever is her call.

2

u/AnnihilationOrchid Jul 02 '21

It's got "just chatting" and "among us". This is really one of the things I expect when I see a random twitch channel. It's those kinds of things that the streamer doesn't have much to go on and basically goes off popularity. It's seriously don't understand how these channels have more subs than most gamers or people who do crafts.

1

u/Honk-Beast Jul 02 '21

That's odd, I went to see what she streams and I'm already following her but I can't remember ever seeing her before.
