This has been my first year (well ~9 months) streaming and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the diverse, amazing people I’ve met, the fun shenanigans we’ve had, and the supportive community that has slowly begun to form!

I didn’t really have any expectations back when I started but all of this was something I never imagined. I’m really excited for what the next year will bring.

I hope the rest of you out there are having the same experiences as I’ve had, and if not, I hope that myself and others here can help change that!

Looking forward to seeing all of your Twitch Recaps!

Hey everyone! Looking for any interior decorator aficionados out there. For as long as I can remember I've never been able to decorate spaces where I live and would love some advice!

I've been at my current home a few years and my living room is painted, but the walls are empty. We have some furniture (couch, entertainment center, key ring holder) and our TV but you really wouldn't be able to tell who lives there or what type of people we are. This is the case for all of our rooms.

Does anyone have or know of any guides/tips/suggestions for making a space feel more "lived-in" or "home-y"? I'm not sure where to start aside from family pictures, but then get stressed about messing up our walls or something "looking wrong" and having to redo/undo it all. Any way to get past that mindset as well is definitely welcome!

Any help is appreciated, thanks everyone!

Sorry if this isn’t the right place or format to ask questions.

Just looking to see if anyone has any recommendations for games that might be on sale for the holidays to add to the collection or try out!

Other games I enjoy for context

• Root
• Scythe
• Terraforming mars
• Wingspan
• Marvels Champions/Legendary
• Betrayal at house on the hill
• Camel Up
• That’s Pretty Clever
• Roll Low
• Catan
• Azul

Just really proud of this achievement after originally playing the games years ago and just barely scraping through!

If anyone else out there is trying to achieve this and having some struggles — you got this! I believe in you! Follow your dreams!

Twitch announced they have updated their Simulstreaming Guidelines to allowing simulstreaming to any other platform (YouTube, Kick, etc)!

Until now, Twitch affiliates and partners have been limited to only streaming on Twitch when live on Twitch. Meaning to stream to another platform you would have to end your stream on Twitch, then begin streaming to whatever other platform.

So now, with some caveats listed in the link below, you’re able to stream to all of the platforms simultaneously. This is great for small streamers wanting to reach a broader audience!

I’m still testing out the logistics for how to make this work but it’s awesome to see this happening when most companies have been becoming more and more limited!

New Guidelines here

Been streaming for about 7 months or so and have really been enjoying it! I’m always looking for ways to make it better but am having some trouble thinking of some interesting ways for viewers to use their channel points in larger amounts.

Right now I mostly have sound effects for cheap to let people stay engaged and participate throughout the stream. I don’t really have any larger point redeems aside from one for 3k to play without my glasses for a set time.

Any of you out there find any success with point redeems that aren’t just memes like 1 million points to end the stream?

Let me know if this isn't the right place to post it but kind of doing a go live notification? If this is wrong feel free to let me know!
