Twitch is hardly pure brain rot, there are plenty of things worse, but the growth and commercialization of streaming have created a lot of problems for parts of the platform. There is some really amazing content on there and as far as I have seen most watchers have Twitch going on with something else. For the really, really massive communities, it does seem like a crapshoot. Whats the point of chat that streams by at a million miles an hour? Then again...you get to see modern day celebrities interacting in real time...for many that is a cool thing to experience.
