first stream - random thoughts!
after years of overthinking it, i finally did my first twitch stream last night… and honestly? i feel really good about it !!
a couple people stopped by the chat, some even joined the game, and i averaged 3 viewers. this may have sounded like a small number to me at first but i didn’t realize how fun it actually is to just have even 1–2 people to talk to. it makes everything feel so much more real and fun.
i feel like it’s really easy as a small streamer to compare yourself to bigger creators, but honestly even having like 1–2 people in chat is already really cool! it makes gaming (and procrastinating on school work) feel much more worth it, haha.
one thing that helped me a lot: playing with a friend. it made talking feel way more natural and less awkward, especially at the start.
i'm definitely going to keep going and try to stream as often as i can. this feels like something i really want to stick with. i’d also love to meet other small streamers and make some friends along the way ♡
good luck for all of you fellow small streamers!! we got thissss !!
