>>84135345Let's count how many wrong things this dumbass anon got in his post.
>They aren't allowed to1. They are.
>They have to be in Twitch first2. They don't.
>At best they can restream to Youtube3. There is no "at best." They CAN stream on Youtube.
>Nazuna wanted to straight up ditch Twitch4.The reason Nazuna couldn't stream on Youtube remains unknown to this day. The only insight we ever got was that it was something contractual with a third party, with a lot of people assuming that third party was Cover. But even then that's only rrats, not confirmed.
>Gunrun is in deep with Twitch leadership5. Gunrun no longer works for Twitch, and left in 2018. For extra stats, VShojo wasn't even conceived for 2 more years, and Twitch's current CEO didn't start there until 2023, 5 years after.
>VShojo was always an apparatus for Twitch itself6. This is some wild conspiracy theory territory that I don't even know what to respond with aside from saying it's stupid.
>It's used to prop Twitch up after they lost big streamers7. VShojo wouldn't be the way to do this in the first place, considering the streamers who left were pretty much all massive fleshies like Ludwig and Sykkuno. You'd want to be enticing big names like Speed or something to combat this on Twitch's side.
Let's also not get into the only reason those people left Twitch is because Youtube gave them massive signing bonuses, and all of them returned to Twitch the very day their exclusivity contracts expired.>Much of its growth is from hot tub streams8. The hot tub meta died when they legalized it. There's still streams of course, but most of the appeal was skirting the rules, and their strategy of making them okay on the TOS killed that appeal. Picrel is the current state of the meta sorted by most viewers, with the top stream being under 300 views.
>In that context vtubers don't seem bad as a strategy9. Did you ever see how Poki's fans reacted to her trying out a vtuber model for fun? That was before VShojo and it was a huge news story. Vtuber coomers can pivot to flesh when there's IRL stuff involved, but flesh coomers rarely pivot to vtubers.
>Remember when they allowed titty streams? They're desperate.10. See point 8
>Ironmouse being a feel good story11. I mean this one's kinda not wrong, but it's also wrong in that you're presenting it like she was specifically chosen for her life story. Melody chose the initial members for VShojo. Melody's first friend on Twitch was Ironmouse and that's why she joined.
>Fuck anyone shilling it12. Twitch is the objectively superior platform and everybody knows it. That's why indies stream there, not on Youtube
>Prove how real American she is13. She streams there because she's got a big English audience that prefers Twitch, and because she can benefit from things like raids while there. Also she tends to do English-focused streams on Twitch, and Japanese-focused streams on Youtube
