    What’s your alternative? YouTube?

      Kinda? Though they need a better discovery page for live streams.

        Maybe we don’t actually need 10 hours of video game playing and bikini wearing at a time. Maybe that’s not a good product.

          Clearly people want it. Who are you to say what’s a good product?

            The average^^@ user watches Twitch from 4pm to 5.30pm twice a week. There is absolutely a delta between what is required to be a profitable service, what is quality entertainment and what the service is and does currently.

            ^^@ this isn’t literal, but illustrative

              No idea how you can come to any of these conclusions given that viewer numbers are publicly visible. If this were true the streamers wouldn’t be live as much as they are outside these hours.

      I’ll be honest, if the solution is Twitch, then I don’t need my problem solved. That is, compared to Twitch, I don’t need an alternative. Not having Twitch is a solid improvement over having Twitch. (kidding of course, but all too often it feels like that with just how bad the technical aspects of their site are)
