Social networks are all about network effects. It's nearly impossible to compete head-to-head with an established social network (which is why established social network companies are so valuable).

Usually, the answer is to focus on a niche where you can do something special to be dramatically better than the incumbents, so you can dominate the niche. On your site I see Street Fighter V, which is pretty mainstream and works fine on Twitch. Is there some game you can support 10x better than Twitch?
