    Why is twitch becoming a cam soft porn site? It was supposed to be about gaming. I just want to watch people play games.

      You’re in luck! There are millions of people playing games on Twitch. Who knew?

      Well, you see, it turned out that people are far more willing to fork over money when they get to see boobs instead of noobs.

      goes on Twitch

      finds game

      watches someone play it

      At some point in there I completely ignored all the discount OnlyFans over on IRL and Just Chatting tags.

      That said: An opt-in with specific categories would halt a lot of the people complaining. Been awhile since I’ve dug into websites design, though thay shouldn’t be too difficult to implement, especially as they already have tags.

      Your comment insinuates that you have trouble finding gamers on the platform, as if there’s a finite limit on creator count and the gamers are getting pushed out by non-gaming creators, which is obviously not the case.

      Is it a matter of going to Twitch for games but then getting roped in by the porn instead? If so, that’s pretty funny tbh.

      It hasn’t been strictly gaming for many years,

      What is interesting is if you don’t click on or watch those streams Twitch doesn’t recommend them to you.

      A lot of the complaining is often just an unaware self report which is kinda funny.
