The most popular content now seems to be Just Chatting and react content. These days you can get to see 4 levels of OTK streamers watching and reacting to each others' react videos, sometimes in some kind of circular dependency graph.
- madrox 4y agoI was over-simplifying for the purposes of a comment, but I think my point stands. Just Chatting is an interesting one, because it's mostly a parking space for streamers who are just engaging with chat. However, that's content that retains a streamer's audience most of the time. That's hardly the content that will draw new people to the platform. You have a few notable exceptions, but it's hardly anything Twitch can grow the platform on the back of.
- moogly 4y agoThat's true; those streamers tend to be the ones who have made it and have "tenure" now.
