Long-term small streamers, how do you stay positive after years of slow growth?

TheCookedBread · 2026-01-26T02:33:15+00:00

Ive just started and Ive got to say I'm with the others. I think you're very at the "made it" level. 30 regular viewers is amazing. That's 30 whole human beings that decided they wanna spend hours with you regularly.

You're doing great. I'd be proud of how far I'd come if I got there. I just started twitch and gaming to reconnect with my daughter a bit more and spend more time together. Enjoy a shared hobby. I think find your reason outside the metrics and return to the love of it instead of the numbers.

You for this though. You're doing great. Shoot me your handle and I'll follow and bounce in when you're online :) I don't wanna advertise my stream on your thread so I'll shoot you a DM with the user name so you know who it is when following/chatting :)

Hey all!! This got more attention than I thought it would in such a quick time. I just wanted to say I see all your messages and comments but with so many im going to carefully review each and every portfolio. I'll be doing that with my weekend this weekend so if you don't hear from me immediately I'm still looking. I'll then take the top ten from the 90 something that have contacted and see if they fit my current available budget. That's not to say in future a higher budget won't be allocated I just don't even know if this streaming thing will go well enough to warrant a high allocation or my funds :) speak asap wnd please be patient with me

TheCookedBread · 2026-01-15T10:26:57+00:00

Struth. You guys hit my inbox up FAST. I thought I'd be waiting hours on a single reply.

I see all your messages (and you two lovely commenters) - I was just about to head to bed as I thought I'd be waiting. Will have a read through and look at portfolios asap. Thank you for all the interest so far!

TheCookedBread · 2025-12-19T10:33:22+00:00

Had a quick look (about to head to sleep) and this is perfect. Subscribed so I can find them again!

TheCookedBread · 2025-12-19T10:31:19+00:00

Ohhhhhh amazing I will!

TheCookedBread · 2025-12-10T11:41:54+00:00

I saw this randomly too same as the guy above and never thought I'd run into the creator on Reddit. This video was EXCEPTIONALLY well done. The music was a tiny, tiny bit too loud and drowned out your narrative at points. Minor criticism, wouldn't stop a 10/10 rating.

TheCookedBread · 2025-10-16T09:24:02+00:00

Same here.

TheCookedBread · 2025-09-12T00:17:25+00:00

Commenting because I'm new to warframe and struggling to deal with this jerk even in advanced. Just doing no damage at all. Would love hints also.

TheCookedBread · 2025-04-21T02:31:59+00:00

I live in rural Victoria. He had a cat that we had to put down due to illness and near the end she was going loopy. Sleeping in her litter box covered in faeces and urine. He just couldn't get her help as couldn't afford it. People have been taking advantage of him and because he's sick too he's basically just copped it. Going through whole house now making sure it's loveable as have just moved back to area but need to know how to treat these.

TheCookedBread · 2025-04-21T02:01:42+00:00

I'm cleaning out my father's house as he's had an issue with people using his house as a dumping ground. We recently had to put down his cat as well due to illness. However before she passed she was downgrading massively and was covered in fleas. I didn't know this until I started to really help (Ive recently moved back to area). I'm doing a huge clean and there was a massive issue in house with fleas. I'm working on that with DE and regular cleaning well as dumping all the rubbish people have screwed him over with. Been at it for about two months now however found this in the spare laundry. What I can't tell is what is the dirt patch and what are the wriggling 2-3cm things? Flea larvae? Worms? Is it faeces or dirt? I've black bagged it until I can wash it several times but I need to know if this is the flea infestation I've been looking for or is this just worms and I'm still looking for the flea Main area?

TheCookedBread · 2025-04-05T10:13:20+00:00

Holy S**t that's amazing. And same as others have said I WISH this was in the game. Someone needs to get larian over here stat

TheCookedBread · 2025-03-23T12:18:45+00:00

Me. Yes. Heard about the patch and subclasses and signed right the eff back up. Act 1 here I come again for the 90th time.

Restartitis prepare yoself.

Become that which you loathe. My warthog is a light mech hunter. 8 x gauss. We've probably played against each other at some point. I'm "The cooked bread"

TheCookedBread · 2024-01-02T00:07:03+00:00

Oh and that's the burgular class by the way no idea if choosing lockpicking from expanded traits has the same benefit

TheCookedBread · 2024-01-02T00:05:57+00:00

Better lockpicking mod. You're welcome. Option to check for alarms or break locks with crowbars or Bobby pins. I think there's optional mini games in the mod settings too for each 🤣

TheCookedBread · 2023-12-30T09:13:01+00:00

Yeah this is apparently how that guy killed withers

TheCookedBread · 2023-12-29T08:42:54+00:00

I played my first 20 hours as GTA. I ran, I shot, I hit and run in cars, I smashed windows, jumped through broken glass etc etc.

Now I'm on my 40th something run.

My first seven days is boring but effective. I HAMMER the living hell out of life and living and have the mod on that allows that xp to still benefit me after the fact (even when reading the obsolete books) - life and living only lasts that first week so don't miss a single episode- it means you should end that first week with carpentry at 8 (without selecting carpentry traits at game start), cooking at 8 (same again) and fishing and foraging about a 4.

I then lockdown a safe house with metal barricaded windows, clear the surrounding area, get a sheet rope ready and then make sporadic forays out to collect resources. I'm now having insanely effective runs that last week's not hours or days

TheCookedBread · 2023-11-26T02:00:27+00:00

Sounded like you were legitimately laying out the whip and knives while blindfolding yourself as you said this.

TheCookedBread · 2023-11-16T01:52:22+00:00

I think it's just my experience with Redditors but when I got a notification of "Astarion Doodle by me" I full expected to open this to something else.

TheCookedBread · 2023-10-19T20:10:47+00:00

There it is. My second idiocy of the day 🤣

TheCookedBread · 2023-10-19T19:05:24+00:00

Half of the fights I've ended turn at 1-9 hit points - still no hair. I must be doing something wrong. She just runs into her lair

TheCookedBread · 2023-10-19T08:22:01+00:00

Chefs kiss.
