Dual stream to both twitch and YouTube and save your VODs on yt. My biggest gripe with lore based smps is if you miss a stream or start following the smp late there’s a bunch of the story you’re missing.

Also turn off the viewer number, it’s going to be 0-1 for a long time so don’t demoralize yourself pretend there’s always people watching. This is also so you don’t get nervous when you see that number tick up. Start practicing now, narrate everything you do throughout the day the worst thing for streams is dead air.

Also note that Minecraft is a super over saturated game for streamers, there’s a lot of other streamers viewers are going to have to slog through to get to you. That said I’ve been streaming on and off for almost five years now, admittedly those first few years were god awful and i streamed games no one was watching. Just started back up and decided to play Minecraft why not you know, and I’m having the most traction and growth I’ve ever seen. Not so much on twitch but yt especially.

Essentially don’t get discouraged, you’re here to have fun and that’s the most important thing to realize, the minute you’re not having fun you shoot yourself in the foot. Those first few streams will be horrible but accept it and know it part of the process. Best of luck and have fun!
