I don’t use TikTok at all, but I do watch compilation videos on YouTube sometimes. Lately there are some clips of livestreams of people doing really repetitive movements and phrases. What’s up with that?

      But what does it all mean? How does it work? How does paying affect the stream? It baffles me how this kind of thing is entertainment for some people. I must be missing something about it

        It means that, from our perspective, there are a lot of people with more money than sense. I agree that it entirely stupid and I would never consider throwing money at a screen this way.

        During live streams you can send creators messages. If you pay to send a “special” message the creator will do what the message says. That’s it.

        I was reading an article about a streamer who can make 10k a night by streaming her sleeping. She doesn’t do anything other than sleep with the lights on and people give her money.
