I get a rather perverse joy out of watching a streaming service I PAY FOR, that contains ads, with an adblocker.
Putting ads in a paid service should be a felony.
Lets take a look at CoD Single player.
1. Patch game.
2. Start game.
3. Update requires restart.
4. Restart
5. Select Single player
6. Game exits to desktop and reloads.
7. Update requires restart.
8. Shaders!
Lets play something else fuck me.
Oh my god, @ubereats support is quite possibly the WORST in the business. I order food, order priority, driver makes another stop before me which shouldnt be possible, and support tells me food prep takes time and to be happy and then closes my ticket. Insane.
Got the odd itch to play League again. First ranked match and it says Im IRON 2... oh god. I'm playing with people with no hands. The algorithm thinks Im missing parts.
@Docgotgame You dont have a gap in employment. You were self employed for however long you've done streaming. You also have great softskills. Sell the business side of what you've done, not the "I played games for 10 years"
@Docgotgame I still miss it and occasionally upload something, but at this point I'm making more than I did there, and I no longer have to chase trends and views. I'll definitely pick it back up in retirement in a decade or two if its still around. But itll be for fun.
@Docgotgame It was a hell of a transition. But once I finally got a decent job. The weight of not having to do YT/Twitch anymore to survive was huge. The stress melted away and my happiness went through the roof. I didnt realize how stressed I'd been over paying bills.
@SenjouEsDee@zachbussey Pretty simple.
If you make $15 an hour in revenue, but it costs you $16 an hour to operate its a losing deal. Can you afford to operate at a loss? Sure. But its a business not a charity.
@InmanAlex@zachbussey@Twitch If operating somewhere loses you money you are going to try and resolve that regardless of size. It appears that SK has prohibitive costs for external sources. Netflix has had issues as well. Twitch is a business not a charity.
