AS A CONTENT CREATOR, would you be interested in a paid, no-ads, no-surveillance streaming alternative to Twitch?
Basically trying to gauge if there's a market out there for non-adbased streaming.
@Moon Issue is, Twitch streamers are paid for the ads. In your scenario, they would be paying to not be paid.
@matrix @Moon It's like $50 a month from what I'm reading. Not subscription/bit money, but still nice. Would likely be higher without adblockers.
@matrix @Moon Yes, but it's still some noticeable income to where streamers choose to continue running ads.
I think viewers and sponsors are going to be low on any niche alternative service. I think the selling point should be "uncensored" instead of ad-free. Most people aren't too bothered by ads to pay $10 to stop them (the average TV watcher is completely used to a program being 33% ads). I think moon should go with the "uncensored" angle, as those people are the ones looking for alternatives. Some censorship to prevent FBI-warrant stuff, but in general just market it as a freezespeach streaming service for people like Terry (man I miss those streams)
