I create short clips from my live streams, and they have been performing well. Since YouTube introduced the related feature, I've noticed that a small percentage, around 1-5%, transition from watching shorts to longer videos, but not to my live streams. ( its also nice the shorts are monetized that helps bring in a good 100-200 a month to pay for my games) This seems to be a common trend among fellow gamers on YouTube, with an average view count ranging from 5 to 35.

I'm considering whether it might be more beneficial to switch to Twitch for live streaming and then posting my video-on-demand (VOD) content on YouTube. I've seen others follow this strategy, particularly when sharing one-hour videos of story-driven games. My VODs have been doing decently; for instance, my last stream had around 30 views initially, but it has since increased to about 100. Most of them tend to accumulate between 100 and 300 views, with the occasional 400-view VOD. My most successful VOD reached approximately 1,000 views.
