>>97619019Coming from an almost 40yo viewer mindset who has been here forever (I'm sure younger anons/tourists will be more unicorn adjacent due to hormones, social pressure, life situation etc):
>married/engaged before starting vtubing and is open about it since the beginningI'm totally fine with it, the terms of the streamer-viewer interaction are clear since the beginning.
>starts single (real), gets a bf later (and is honest about it)Nothing wrong about it, life has to follow its course, but in theory (clueless optimism I know) if you donate hard it's because you want to support someone who doesn't have much means, if they get a bf/husband/gf/wife, that concept changes, the family has to provide for themselves. Would still donate reasonable amounts though if I still find the streams enjoyable (it's a job, a community, and art... if I'm having fun regularly watching you, I'm gonna contribute like how one does to comedy clubs or favorite musicians)
>lies to extract more money from gachikoi, simps, unicorns etcgarbage person taking advantage of people, need no further consideration
So yeah getting a bf or whatever generally (like nyanners) lowers views and revenue but I'll respect anyone who goes about it head on, no dishonest bullshit.
