>>24291556There was a full-time indie streamer I used to watch before vtubers that went over his schedule basically being an 80-100 hour work week, when broken down.
>40 hours streaming (four 8-10 hour days)>video editing every day (4-6 hours a day, depending on if he streamed that day)>other misc tasks related to streaming (talking to sponsors/promo deals, managing online storefront/shipping merch, social media, working on PC or streaming room etc)Even if you consider management takes away some of the burden, and having a steady income means they don't have to grind the stream 24/7, that time is then replaced by other things. Like you said, sponsorships, collabs, recording, etcetc. And then to top it all off, your main methods of disconnecting from work (gaming, social media) are still connected to your actual job. I imagine some of these girls are constantly in "work" mode, even when they're not in front of the camera.
