>>108939957speculating about why pressing the 'go live'-button causes her physical ligma pain seems to be a maze without exit, but I'm wondering if it's not something that has more to do with general motivation than anything else. There seems to be plenty of fragile sickly people in this business, after all being a gamerrrr was always catered to neet shutins and generally frail people.
Then there's streamers, IIRC, like Koyori/Pekora/Korone who have mentioned that streaming is a relaxing activity for them, to wind down from a stressfull day/week.
Speaking of Korone, she made a simple tweet that she's going on hiatus for personal reasons and even skipping Fes'26 and everyone is okay with it. Sure, take as long as you need.
At the end of the day these streamers don't owe us anything and they can do whatever the hell they want. But especially the ghosting and long hiatuses are strange behavior for someone who has had 1m+ subs multiple times. Like do you want to do this gig or not? Otherwise go the Mumei/Sana route and become a semi-streamer so we all know what to expect.
Almost wanted to delete this post, so take it or leave it. Also added reddit spacing for readability.
