    I tried streaming for the first time over the weekend. Damn is it hard to keep talking for multiple hours straight. Especially when there’s zero messages in the chat. Streamers make it look normal but damn is it not

      Get a producer or anyone with you and talk to them. That’s how radio and TV broadcasters used to do it. They would talk to the console or camera operator. Eventually it becomes natural to talk by yourself. It does look like unhinged behavior without the context. But it is an old skill, as old as radio broadcast. Try acting monologues to yourself, it also helps.

      do it for fun. I dabbled a little to no audiece, I just liked putting on a show. No one’s watching, well, no one listens to my music either.

      I don’t think it’s that bad if you’re trying to solve a problem. Still, I would whisper rather than say it out loud.

      I live alone, I too talk to the imaginary camera to keep sane. At least I think it keeps me sane.

      Thanks for the bits, bananaman66764.

      Rubber ducking? Is that when you tape a ducky to your fupa and dry hump something/someone to get the squeaky sound?

    I used to do this as a kid constantly before streaming ever existed.

    Taking a piss outside? Literally competing for the longest piss distance tournament and taking the gold.

    At that point just hit record and decide later if you want to post some parts of it.

    Wil help build confidence to start streaming.

    I have thought about showing off my gigantic single player creative mode Minecraft map through a live stream for years, I spent most of my free time over a decade of manually just building huge, huge structures.

    And pretending to show it off to a live stream, talking about it and explaining it makes it easier to remember what/why/how I built stuff…

      Your body adapted after realizing it was a total waste of energy?

      A less cynacle (however you spell that) theory might be it’s useful for language learning/practicing.

    Anon should just do a stream and do their best and hope one of the popular streamers/youtubers pity them and give them a donation and a shoutout to a massive audience.

    Pity views better than no views.

    I think that’s just thinking out loud or talk to yourself. It’s another story if OOP overreact on every turn though.
