These comments are wild and mostly sexist as fuck.

If you have kids and you give them complete unfettered access to the web I'm sure they have seen more than a boob. If that bothers you perhaps try being a parent. Maybe getting involved with your child's online activity. Maybe don't use the Internet as a fucking babysitter.

Sorry.... What category to choose for grinding a dildo on my fanny?? Or is Retro fine as long as I add a label?

How do I apply for this job to determine who is an artist and who isn't? I have years of experience. 🤵‍♂️

Nobody is not an artist

The only thing that really bothers me is that the porn get shoved on the front page.

I wanna open Twitch on my living room TV to watch SC2 and tiveux something is painting her tits on my screen already.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago

This for me is the main issue

Just stop ~~watching shit~~ using twitch ~~streams like a 10yo~~ because it's trash software and always has been.

FTFY

It works fine for me, but I mostly watch one streamer who only streams on Twitch. My ad blocker blocks their stupid ads on stuff I periodically check out that I'm not subbed to (e.g. MP events hosted by someone else), so it's generally a good experience.

However, the front page is absolute cancer, and it's why I don't watch many other streams. I just want my steamer and related content, and a few random favorited streamers from other games I very occasionally watch. I feel a little bad about the ad blocker, but that's because there's no in-between AFAIK where I can sub to 1-2 channels and still get no ads on the very rare occasions I'll watch something else (less than once/month).

I do this with 1 streamer, too. I sub with prime though.

Ive seen the odd stream of a related streamer but normally just catch vods on youtube for anyone related.

Who is your one streamer out of interest?

Mines paymoneywubby.

Ayyy. I very occasionally watch the live stream I usually just catch him on paymoneywubby stream archive on YouTube.

I'm surprised how much pearl clutching there is in this thread. This seems like a good thing. It's all supposed to be clearly labeled, and if people want to watch streams with nudity, what's wrong with that?

A hear a bag of cookies calling your name

That's why it's legal, it became a first amendment issue.

That's the Infinite growth model for you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

If it grows infinitely, contact your doctor instantly!

And also if you manage to do that, you should contact the Clay Mathematics Institute as well, you're likely eligible for a free $1 Million.

I’m kinda surprised there’s no NSFW version of Twitch tbh, I’d imagine it would be the easiest pile of money if they could capitalize on how much porn these Twitch gals are doing as a separate brand or something.

EDIT: Should clarify, I meant an Amazon-owned NSFW Twitch using Twitch branding. I know cam sites exist and also got lucky on Omegle a few times.

Just become a soft-core porn site at this point, Twitch.

🤔 In away they did that already with the new rules.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

It's hard to do that officially when a big chunk of users are minors. Neither Twitch nor the streamers of this content want to admit that they make money serving softcore porn to kids. Cause that'd be weird.
