would it be beneficial for some chuubas to present a more fabricated version of themselves on stream? being very personal with viewers invites the kind of scrutiny that detracts from the stream itself and turns into parasocial circlejerking, which I suppose is what some chuubas want if they're in it for the money. streaming is already parasocial even outside vtubing since there's been a bunch of cases of streamers having to say out loud that they're not your family or friends, but I think that presenting an idealized image of yourself can save you from that a bit, obviously this problem gets exacerbated the bigger you are and here it's not that big of a deal but I still think it's worth talking about since streamers can actually weigh in and not have it be just viewer opinions
