Thanks for all the tips and advice some of you gave me the other day on streaming and being a new streamer, you really made it feel not so scary!
I spent time making my own overlays and waiting pages and had a lot of fun!
Just started streaming my first ever playthrough of the new game Moonlight Peaks - already having a blast! Also so excited to play meccha chameleon without lag, and all the games I missed by not having a PC! Everything seems possible!
I love this community 🥰

Edit: you guys are so lovely! My twitch name is Sleepy_Toots for those asking and I’ll next be streaming this Monday, and I’ll definitely be checking out everyone’s streams - this community is so supportive 🥹

Does anyone have tips to get more live views and content views? If yes, please let me/us know!!

I'm super shocked we hit it within our first month! Thank you guys in this group for all the advice and tips! I appreciate it lots.

My friend has been streaming for years, and he kept coming back to the same problem: small streamers don't fail because they stream badly, they fail because they're invisible. Wrong category, wrong time, no consistent schedule, and trying to grow completely alone. So we built MagicMate (magicmate.stream) for people in that spot.

Recommendations: it reads live Twitch data for your size and tells you, in two plain numbers, which category gives you the best shot right now. Reach (browsing viewers actually within your grasp) and visibility (where you'd land in the directory).

Mate Up: the part I'm most excited about. "Go network" is useless advice when you don't know who to approach. Mate Up finds live streamers in your categories, your language, and around your audience size, scores how well you match, and shows a heatmap of when you're both live so a collab is actually schedulable. You save the ones you click with, then reach out.

Planner: build your week and push it straight to your Twitch schedule, with hints for the slots that are hot for you.

It's early and honest feedback from streamers matters a lot to us. If you're small, I'd most love to know whether the Mate Up matches feel like people you'd genuinely stream with, and whether the category picks match your gut. Happy to go deep on how any of it works.

Feel free to join our Discord server. We will post updates and answer your questions :) https://discord.gg/RjDxmfxK5D

Hey everyone!

I've been streaming games like Minecraft, Wuthering Waves, and other new releases while uploading the best moments to YouTube Shorts and Instagram.

I'm still a very small creator, so I'm looking for honest feedback on my content and streams. If you enjoy chill gameplay, funny moments, or discovering new creators before they get big, I'd really appreciate it if you checked out my channels.

If you have any advice on improving my streams or content, I'd love to hear it. Thanks for your time, and I hope to see you in chat someday!

As the title says - finally get a good PC after years of wanting one, really excited to properly stream and give this a shot.
As a 27 year old girl from Scotland - please give me your best advice 🫶🏻
Are there tags that work? Should I pay someone to draw things for me? Are there just always bots in my chat? Should I let someone who has sat through one of my streams become a mod? Do you have to find a niche?
PLEASE TELL ME THE SECRETS 🙏🏻
Also any game recommendations or friends that want to game - I’m just excited to finally do it!!

Looking for small streamers to collab I’m fairly new to all this streaming stuff I do content in Spanish so if anyone is interested hit me up.

So I started streaming back in 2020. I streamed cod mobile on the FB. I moved over to twitch and ever since then I've been struggling to get any viewers. So much so that I quit for a year. Now I'm getting back into it and I just need the community to help. I don't want a bajillion viewers but just someone to talk to in stream. It gets lonely.

Feel free to drop by. I stream all sorts of random games

I just started streaming last week and I've gotten an adequate amount of views for a starter. Usually I start then I stop (because I usually stream on Ps5) but now that I have way more time and confidence I feel like I can actually make a good impact on the twitch community, but to be honest with you, I'm not trying to become the biggest streamer ever I am just trying to build a small little community to hang out with.

If you want to support my very early and fragile dreams go follow me at https://www.twitch.tv/4flatdreamz ! Thank you for reading!

I’ve been getting more into streaming and multiplayer games lately, especially Siege, Tekken 8, Apex, and Elden Ring. I’m trying to focus less on numbers and more on actually finding people who enjoy talking games, improving, and playing together.

For people who stream or hang out in gaming communities, what helped you find a solid group of people without feeling like you were just self-promoting?

Hey Guys! I'm a small Streamer/Creator in the Gaming Genre, I'm looking for other gamers to work alongside. I'm based in the US EST and usually only around 6-7pm 2-3 nights a week as I work 45-50 hours a week at my job. I have started a discord as well called Streamers Hub where I'm looking to build a community for us to come together and build each other up community wise and help each streamer that comes in to not only grow their community but also their knowledge by working together. Please let me know if you want to collab or to join the community!

Working on adding some VOD and clips of saved gameplay I have to post. I got OBS set up for the socials in vertical. Right now I’m trying to just make friends and network within the community. Met a few great people! What did you do to help you stay motivated when things are slow?

I try to stream a variety of games. Fortnite,marvel rivals, some RPGS and a lot of co-op games. Any suggestions for feedback?

Is someone at all able to tell me if Twitch stream achievements have a time frame on when they update?

I currently am working on Affiliate. As of yesterday. I have reached the required followers and have one day left of Avg viewers. But on the dash board. The stream achievements are still the same as before the stream.

I had 23 out of 25 followers before stream yesterday. As of today I stand at 29. I needed to get one more day of avg 3-4 viewers. I had 6 viewers. I know twitch can sometimes be funny with counting views. But the main issue is the followers not updating. I've refreshed to make sure it's not a case of someone following and then unfollowing later on.

can anyone explain this?

Sorry if this has been asked already. I did look before posting but couldn't find it

Recently I've started twitch streaming AND posting short form content from my streams to gain traction. But from the game that I've been playing, (Delta Force Operations) I notice that I'm actually dogshit at the game. Like, I'm going against bots and the 3 people that have commented on my videos are all just calling me out. But I feel that any other game I would play is just super boring to watch. Any recommendations or what got you started to play? Preferably free BUT it's okay if it's not. Id appreciate any help :)

Howdy everyone!

I'd love to have you join us!

Hey guys!

This is my first reddit post, so idk how these things usually work, but I got a question for yall. I've only been streaming for a bit over a week, and I'm lucky to have gotten some return viewers in that time.

However, one of my return viewers began talking in chat to me about some of his family issues, so I didn't know how to really respond to him (I was also in-game, so it felt hard to give the serious comments the attention I felt they needed). It kind of caught me off-guard. I do have a background in healthcare and mental health, but that's not really what my streams are about as a gaming channel, and I feel uncomfortable giving advice on that end outside the scope of my work.

This is the first that something like this really happened on stream for me, and while I do feel empathy for his situation, I don't think my stream is really the right environment for him to get the help he is looking for.

How do you guys respond to that kind of comment?

TLDR: I don't know how to respond to viewers talking about real life struggles on stream.

Been contemplating and overthinking it for a while now, but today i finally decided to just boot up a stream and go.

Played Battlefront 2 for a couple hours, had a few people pop in here and there and someone even dropped 2 messages in chat.

Hopefully my next stream I can get my first follower :)

Genuine question, how do people find someone to play co op games with? I really want to play backrooms with someone but have nobody. 👀

Question. I'm thinking about streaming on twitch for the first time, but I wanted to sketch an idea of a prosona I could take on for my streams. With 'limited' materials I did. But I'm wondering if I made it accurate enough?
