>1. Do not collab unless you have large audience overlap or the same target audience. If you'd like to collab for fun, go for it, but you should always factor networking aspects.Cross collabs work with different audience overlap, what you mean to say is content differences.
Example - if someone is a lewdtuber and the other is not then your audience might have some issues with that. But if you are a RTStuber collabbing with a Retrotuber and you decide to play some Lethal Company, then that's perfectly fine and gives everyone a breath of fresh air.
The point of collabs isn't to steal someone's audience, it's to make the algorithm pick up on the views and start shilling to a new audience for both of you.
>2. It's better to stream everyday even for a short amount of time than once every couple daysThis isn't how the algorithm works on any major platform. As long as you stream, post, etc. at least twice a week then you are fine. It's important to do so at the same time each week. When you first start posting content, the algorithm doesn't even know you exists. You appear as a dot on the radar. But if you do this at the same time per week, at least twice a week, it realizes that you are a permanent dot, and will shill your content.
The algorithm does not like spammy content. Indians have ruined the spam approach because they do it 24/7 and flood every topic and hashtag. They are banned and shadowbanned for doing so. So streaming every single day isn't actually as good as you believe. The algorithm wants weekly, periodic, regular, QUALITY content - even if it is bad.
Let me give you a real world example - the algorithm would rather shill something getting 50 likes that has been there week after week, rather than a 1000 likes that has never posted content before.
>3. If you don't have the energy to stream or don't want to, don't do it. The algorithm does not care. When you turn the mic on you are your character. You are no longer "you". It's fine to get personal from time to time and it's okay to not have the best stream. I'm not telling you to be fake, but you must be palatable.
The algorithm and your viewers want you to stream. Tummy hort is not a reasonable excuse. The bigger questions you should be asking is "Why don't I have the energy to stream?" "Why don't I want to stream anymore?" That doesn't mean you get to stop streaming. If writers just wrote when every they felt like it, you would not have books, games, music, etc.
Although not related to vtubing, writing advice very much applies to vtubing and any craft in general.

>4. You don't need reasons to ban people.>especially if you're a woman.Having a guidelines in place is important. Some rules should be rigid, others should be flexible. Banning people who say something you have a disagreement with is a great way to get antis who will remember and hold a grudge. Keep your audience at a distance.
>5. If you're a woman, men on stream can be unwise. This is good advice, but you're missing the bigger point because you're too busy being sexist and hate men. Opposite gender collabs aren't that great because both female/male audience members who watch will think that you belong to "them". When you do same gender collabs they don't mind because they will project their same feelings they have for you onto your collab partner - this is how shipping happens. But when you do cross gender collabs, the gay women/men aren't going to feel anything for your opposite gender partner, and the straight women/men are going to feel jealous of the opposite gender partner.
Rant over.
