idea for adds on twitch.
Posted: Wed Sep 16, 2020 3:25 pm
so i am currently watching dropped frames, and the convo is about adds and twitch.
adds are needed and they will happen.
it's inevitable.
so i wanted to give my idea, and see if we can help as a community to help our streamers keep streaming.
my idea: make watching an add/adds a "feature"of a stream.
so when you are watching Cohh you can watch as much as you want,but you need snacks and drinks and bathroom time..walking the dog.
w/e it is that take a little time.
we hit a button while logged in and you say you'll watch 1 or 3 or 10 adds..while you are doing those things. ( or it could be in blocks 1 min..2 min and so on )
you come back and the time you would have missed the stream anyway..you'll have supported the streamer.
of-course there's a catch, twitch will want to make sure you actually watch.
but this way you as the viewer can pick when you watch it.
this is just an idea,something i wanted to share. because i'd rather be part of a solution then be part of a group that's washed over in a tidalwave of adds.
and have some sort of control.
please be constructive, and if my idea sucks, that's fair. but don;t say it sucks and leave. come help think of a solution.
although i don't expect much.
