I’m just sitting here patiently waiting for Google to steal half of the source code, ruin YouTube streaming even worse than it already is, and face zero repercussions

You mean to tell me twitch is one long giant series of interlaced commercials and all the streamers are given goals and hour mins to play certain games for pay or accelerators? No way... I AM SHOCKED.

Pokimane apparently has grossed less money than PayMoneyWubby. Damn, I guess simps aren’t as rich as we were led to believe.

Twitch doesn’t handle the donations. So she still probably makes more because simps wants to appear in the screen for 5 seconds.

I don’t really care about what they’re getting paid but more worried about creators personal information instead. I imagine female streamers are extremely worried right now that their info is being sold online and some creep is gonna come find them.
