I thought "where the hell does Twitch keep coming up with these absurd sex-related things to ban?" and it turns out it's just this one lady and inventing them is her shtick and she's single-handedly keeping like five journalists employed.
Earlier this month, she streamed herself playing Fortnite with the gameplay projected on her butt.
Amazingly inventive.
Yeah, she should be rewarded, not penalized.
Twitch should just make four sections of their service:
Normie would be the default, and anything else is opt-in.
Not going to happen anytime soon because advertisers and payment processors with the lowest fee wouldn't touch sites that contain adult contents, even if said contents are not visible by default.
I don't see how that would solve anything. That would just result in people streaming in the "normie" classification, but pushing the limits as far as they could go.
Morality policing is dumb. If she wants to stream through her chest or butt, more power to her.
It's the advertisement companies that are far behind the times. They ruin everything they touch because they are so sensitive to Karen types.
Doesn't Twitch make most of its money through donations, and the insanely high cut Twitch takes from them?
They still need to use payment processors, right? Those payment processors wouldn't allow adult contents. Those that do, charge significantly more for each transaction.
We don't know because Twitch is owned by Amazon and they don't give out the financial info of that subsidiary. It could well be that Amazon is subsidizing Twitch as a strategic move.
We need people to ditch these corporate shit hole platforms. All of the technology is becoming come all the ties and so anyone can just whip one of these up on their computer and serve it to the world, the only really bureaucratic restrictions exist preventing this
Streaming video to millions of people isn't just something anyone could whip up and run. It requires an ungodly amount of infrastructure and the only reason twitch and YouTube can keep going is because Amazon and Google own millions of servers world wide
At this point Twitch slowly but surely became OnlyFans 2.0
Twitch has always been about whoring. And I'm not just talking about girls showing cleavage or whatever. People whore for their viewers to donate, and the viewers whore for their senpais to notice them. It's just an annoying concept. inb4 "there's exceptions, especially for smaller streamers" - I know, I don't care. It's just a matter of time and growth potential for most. It's part of the commercialization and it happens even on YT now too.
Me watching Vinesauce just play games and talk about music or whatever: 💀
Im an avid twitch user. Please put down the pitchforks you may have from the title. This is her whole schtick (morgpie), finding creative ways around the censorship. Yes she does sex work, but she's also a great streamer in her own right and is actually playing the games on screen. She constatly holds a chat of like 4k people and streams for HOURS. You can only horny watch for so long, at a certain point people are staying because they just enjoy her personality and stories.
Like this is fucking hilarious. Subjectively ofc, but If my owlverweight man ass were to do the same thing, everyone would just be laughing at me.

It's called fostering parasocial relationships for profit and it's not something we should encourage.
Other than the boobs and butts the description fits 99% of people streaming gameplay and interacting with fans.
Yeah, we shouldn't encourage that either.
...I'm more serious about this than I'd like to be.
fostering parasocial relationships for profit
that is onlyfans whole deal
It is not only Onlyfans whole deal, but that is how all celebrity worship works.
I’m with you. If someone wants to watch ass Fortnite why should I care?
Yes she does sex work, but she’s also a great streamer in her own right and is actually playing the games on screen.
That's like saying the porn stars are actually acting. Nobody watches porn movies for the acting.

Those are her "m'lady" fedora-wearing parasocial white knights, willing to give her all the monies.
You can only horny watch for so long, at a certain point people are staying because they just enjoy her personality and stories.
No, at a certain point, they are going to her OnlyFans page to whack off for 5-10 minutes and then returning back to her stream. She does this to popularize herself for her real sex work, which pays real money.
Subjectively ofc, but If my owlverweight man ass were to do the same thing, everyone would just be laughing at me.
That's kind of the problem, and it's a big reason why male streamers are annoyed by how female streamers present themselves on Twitch. Hell, even female streamers who just want to play games are annoyed at this shit.
Keep sex work at the sex work web sites.
I was literally just saying this in a meeting with my boss today that since the invention of Twitch, there has just been too many boobs on the Internet.
Iike without twitch, there would be a perfect amount of boobs on the Internet, but you know those thirst streamers they force you watch before you can view any other content really just pushed the whole thing over the edge.
You know what there's too much of on the Internet these days? Squares that don't understand sarcasm and tone.
I also blame Twitch. Before there were boobies in the way of my gaming streams, people had to read into the covered up boobies all over the Internet. Now there's just boobies on display everywhere and you don't have to think about anything.
That was a work conversation with your boss??
"Because of twitch there are too many boobs"
LOL
I'm sorry they force you to watch certain streamers? I don't use twitch, wtf is that about?
It seems to me like there's a big market for sexual video game streamers. A site that came along and allowed it might even dethrone twitch if done well.
Only Fans is trying to get into video. This is probably what they should be doing, not whatever that TV thing is
I think being rebellious and creative is part of the fun.
Pro tip to all the unfairly ridiculed titty streamers out there doing God's work (as if any of you were actually on Lemmy):
You could probably skirt this by hiding your face. Then you have plausible deniability as they can't prove concretely whether it's you showing skin or topical abstract art expression.
As an added bonus, the content value also stands to potentially go up as viewer's would no longer be driven away by your over-attended attention seeking mug. That's what you do this for, right, to make content for your community?
Wait, the Morgpie?
If its the same one who does porn, why watch her boob streams on twitch when you can watch her get stuffed on pornhub? I don't get it
I guess because sex has to be included everywhere now. we can't just have places for normal streamers to go.
it's very annoying.
Yeah I hate it when I am just trying to watch TV and someone keeps coming into my house and putting porn on and I say "hey buddy, why do you keep coming into my house and putting porn on the TV? One of these days I'm going to have enough of it, and then I'm going to post about it on the internet. You'll see."
Gonna do a twitch.tv horny stream speedrun, let's go
Two fucking seconds holy shit.
I was trying to prove that the problem isn't as bad as everyone says, but damn it's gotten worse since the last time I checked
TIL she's on pornhub
TIL she's on twitch lol
Just let it happen at this point. I get the idea of trying to moderate the content so that it's not a bunch of thirst streams and so that there are actually people doing various activities on there, but people act like this because it gets views.
Just let people get it out of their systems. Might take a few years, but eventually there will be people looking to watch regular people playing video games, making art, playing music or just talking again.
It's not really Twitch's fault. Twitch doesn't care about sexual content, they're a company they don't have morals. They'd be more than happy to rake in those dollars. The problem are advertisers and payment processors who have very strict views/policies on stuff like this and Twitch has to kowtow to them if they want to be in business.
So many sites have this happen to them, where they allow or even encourage sexual expression and then a payment processor comes in and says "yeah if you don't cut out that we're dropping you" and then it's over.
