Couldn't agree more with this post. You CAN make it on platforms like twitch and youtube but it takes months to get a good audience. Then longer to actually start making an income stream from the audience. The streamer would have to be comfortable talking to themselves a lot without any interaction. That was difficult for me, I know I have great entertainment value but the struggle was real waiting for people to come in and stay.

That is why I came to Steemit. The first night I streamed on Dlive I had 75 viewers and the count was climbing. While this is still low I was still excited that people were hanging out. This gives streamers hope to continue. Also the first night I streamed I made money. I love this platform and will continue streaming and hopfully more will come to see me. Great points OP!
