From Twitch to Dlive

in streaming •  6 years ago 

So about 4 years ago, I decided that I wanted to try and pursue streaming. I bought and built myself a decent PC for gaming and streaming, and started my journey on Twitch. Sadly, one of my flaws is not being consistent, and over the course of 4 years, I have been streaming off and on.

Good things have come from streaming. Finding some new friends, finding great communities of content creators. But the dream of becoming a big content creator on Twitch just never took off. Most likely because I wasn't consistent, but another reason other people would also say, is that Twitch already seems a bit over saturated. And sadly I've seen streamers change from being a small streamer, to getting a taste of the fame.

And then I saw a twitter post from a friend of mine I met through Twitch, that he was now streaming on Dlive. So the curiosity in me set out to see what Dlive was all about.

It looked like Dlive was a streaming platform that just seemed like one big community. Up-voting content creators with steem crypto-currency. A way to help support content creators, while also being part of something larger. I wasn't sure how long Dlive has been around, but I started to tell myself that maybe it was time for a change of scenery.

Maybe I should restart my streaming on a smaller venue. A place that it could be possible for larger growth. Not just in my content, but also to grow a larger community. To me, streaming has always been more about the connections I made with viewers and the community we make, than if I was good or bad at a game.

So hopefully, I can find here on Dlive, what I didn't get on Twitch.
I look forward to the connections and communities i'll meet here on Dlive in the near future.

Till then.
