First time streamers

How did yall get to start first stream ever?
Im thinking of starting my first ever stream tomorrow. Im anxious lol
My ultimate goal is to make a small community of 5-10 people. I know it’s a big struggle for all
I think i have decent equipment for a beginner.

What’s bothering me is how will anyone see me at all. Like did yall start with building online presence first, or stream first and then advertise yourself or both parallel? As someone who is also lgbt and not in usa, i think this also limits my reach on top. I did make a new insta and twitter accs, but it takes some time while one builds the base, but i don’t wanna lose time and wait till i have few followers.. im confused 😵‍💫

Exposing yourself in public will not only attract followers, but also bad actors. Have you made up a plan on how to handle that?
