re: #383 Dopamine Fish

YouTube Gaming is being kicked around by some people, though I’ve heard it’s not exactly the greatest terms of service, either.

I know of multiple streamers who left YouTube for Twitch a while back. A number of complaints involved regarding monetization, needing a lot of followers in order to get something close to fair treatment from YouTube, etc. etc. And there also seems to be a lot more trolling in YouTube as compared to Twitch.

(Someone I know who does videos of some niche wargames had a systematic DMCA attack made on his videos. Many were taken down by default and he had a lot of hoops to jump through to get them restored. And he stated that the downtime was essentially most of the period during which he would get compensation for the content.)

I doubt it will be a better solution for them than Twitch.
