"Bro, what has happened to the viewer count? Is it because of your views on Palestine?"
Probably. That's part of it. It's a combination of a bunch of different things. People don't give a shit about politics. There's a big chunk of the fucking community that is like... I think Palestine plays a role in it for sure. The platform is dying a little bit. It's Sunday. People don't give a shit. People don't really care about politics that much. NaderZaveri, thank you for the 50 gifted subs. Yeah, I mean, there's a bunch of different reasons probably.
I love when I say platform is dying and some dumb motherfucker goes, "Tarik has 60K right now." Yeah, bro. He's watching a fuckin' tournament. What do you mean? Yeah, there's still spikes, but for the most part, the average view count for every single streamer has like, dropped dramatically. At the top especially.
"You just started 24 minutes ago, it's Sunday at 3pm. It's not that big of a deal."
Umm...
"Sounds like saying there's no snow in the north globe so the globe isn't warming."
Yeah. I think people are...
"Why do you let these people who care about view counts stall you like this lmao"
It's my job. I think it's... it's noticeable. It's something that I've noticed as well. And there's not really much I can do about it. You know, I can't change it. The only thing I could do is change how I feel about it.
"I know you say the mobile thing isn't... but it seems to be constant."
Wait, really? Like on the mobile app, it just never shows me live?
Most people at the top of the leaderboard have seen a dramatic decline in their viewership. Ultimately, it doesn't really matter. What matters is whether I'm having fun or not. And if I'm not having fun, then I'll just quit. But I like what I'm doing, and I'm going to keep doing it regardless.
Through the ups and downs. I think a lot of people forget that I started off with 35 fucking viewers. And I was saying the exact same shit when I had 35 fucking viewers. And I was having the same types of fun when I had 35 fucking viewers. And I will continue to do so.
"It hides you behind the stories unless you scroll up and down again."
Ohhh, that's really interesting. Anyway, let's continue.
