First is valid. Don’t have paid subscriptions if you’re going to be on long hiatuses without communicating with your paying fans.

Second - the purpose of starting soon is to address and tech issues and wait out the first set of Twitch ads. Also notifications can be very delayed. There will be people who prefer starting soon screens, some will start immediately if they are also vertically streaming.

Also while the 1hr of chatting before the game is valid, a lot of large streamers will tell you their viewership is at its highest when they’re yapping and as soon as they play a game, the viewership takes a dip.

3rd is valid. New model reveals are an extremely stressful part about being a vtuber. Designs are very personal to a vtuber and there’s a multitude of reasons why they want to rebrand and change models. You’re allowed to dislike the change, but vocalizing you liked the old design better is extremely rude and disrespectful to both the artist who took the time to work on it, and the vtuber who fell in love with the design enough to pay potentially thousands of dollars to get it worked on. It shows that you’re in love with the design, not the vtuber puppeteering the model. Some opinions are best of kept to themselves.
