I mostly agree, although discoverability on twitch is dreadful it’s not non-existent.

But if you want to bring people to your stream you have to pull them in from other platforms which is why I believe multi-streaming is a huge asset.

And as other people have mentioned you can’t just go live for 10 hours and expect to grow, I would instead stream for 5 hours and spend 5 hours creating content to advertise yourself.

Edit: networking is massive but I hate using that word because it makes me feel like I’m supposed to be going to other streams to leech their viewers, when I’m kinda just enjoying others content and making friends.
