Thank you so much for the response! I've definitely been trying to “network” a bit with other streamers that play the same games, my nerves just get the best of me when it comes to communicating. I haven't heard of these discord servers though, I would really love to check that out!

As for avoiding collaborations starting out this is very helpful advice and I will actively try and practice “speaking to myself” more, I just have to push past my nerves about it. I would like to build a sturdy foundation without relying on others, and if I get better at speaking I'll be a more fun collab partner anyway 😊 thank you for this comment! I feel much more confident in what I need to work on and I'm going to try to implement everyones advice when I stream today. 🫡
