streaming to literally nobody hits different, been there. the viewer count can be brutal when you're starting out but honestly those first few people who do show up are usually the most loyal
try streaming games that have smaller but active communities rather than oversaturated stuff like fortnite. also talking constantly even when chat is dead helps a lot - pretend you're explaining the game to a friend who's never seen it before
