I wonder how many human "viewers" are effectively the same as bots. The only time I "watch" something on twitch is when I keep it running muted in the background for drops (e.g. watch some dev stream for 30 minutes and get in-game stuff).

Lol, I've watched exactly 12 hours of twitch in the last months for exactly that reason. I just put it on mute.

I don't play rust anymore but I grinded for those drops from the first twitch rivals lol. I jumped on the moment I heard it was a huge clusterfuck because I knew I just had to get the double door skin.

But yeah I don't watch Twitch anymore* if I do it's to support some old streamers I know, I'll set it to 160p and put it on mute.

*I will watch if Threedogg and Drk does another 5 day Metal Gear Marathon!
