It works fine for me, but I mostly watch one streamer who only streams on Twitch. My ad blocker blocks their stupid ads on stuff I periodically check out that I’m not subbed to (e.g. MP events hosted by someone else), so it’s generally a good experience.
However, the front page is absolute cancer, and it’s why I don’t watch many other streams. I just want my steamer and related content, and a few random favorited streamers from other games I very occasionally watch. I feel a little bad about the ad blocker, but that’s because there’s no in-between AFAIK where I can sub to 1-2 channels and still get no ads on the very rare occasions I’ll watch something else (less than once/month).
He mostly plays Europa Universalis IV and is incredibly creative and entertaining with his runs. He is also the reigning champ for the Paradox tournaments (undefeated), yet he is still very humble about it. I’m in the US, so I mostly watch his VODs, but I’ll occasionally join live if he’s doing a charity event or something.
I’ll occasionally watch BudgetMonk (another EU4 streamer), or watch some MtG or Eternal (haven’t watched either for a couple years). But 99% of the it’s FlorryWorry or a live event w/ him on another channel (Paradox tournaments are on YouTube, so it’s infrequent).
What is there to comprehend? Linkerbaan said they want to watch Twitch but without feeling awkward seeing a bunch of titty girls on their living room TV. Dkarma’s solution is to advise them to stop watching Twitch. It’s not my advice, but the A to B logic is sound.

Nice cool where do I find footage of my competitive game? YouTube?
Yep! Youtube is a great resource for finding footage of competitive games!
Oh great I’ll just switch to the other monopoly, that fixes this! (It doesn’t)
It’s a great platform, the world let’s you watch whatever trash you love so let other people enjoy what they love

I do this with 1 streamer, too. I sub with prime though.
Ive seen the odd stream of a related streamer but normally just catch vods on youtube for anyone related.
Who is your one streamer out of interest?
Mines paymoneywubby.
Ayyy. I very occasionally watch the live stream I usually just catch him on paymoneywubby stream archive on YouTube.

FlorryWorry.

What ad blocker?
uBlock Origin on Firefox.
I have ublock, out of the box it does not impact twitch ads in any way.
Do you have special add ons or filters?
I think just EasyList, not sure, it has been a long time since I set it up. Here’s my config though:
My custom rules are pretty barebones, but here’s that as well (I’m pretty sure neither is related to Twitch):
Let me know if there’s a better way for me to help.
Ill be trying these when I get home, thank you!
Np! Feel free to reach out if you have issues and I can to a little more digging.
Stop watch porn like 10yo and go find a wife!
Yeah just tie down a poor girl and entangle your finances and entire futures just so you can get off, what can go wrong
Only people over eighteen can see porn online.
Also porn is much cheaper than a wife.

They said twitch streams which implies a specific sense, not Twitch in a general sense
“shit twitch streams” means they think there are good streams.
The advice isnt abandon twitch. They think the only way boobi streams are on the home page is if the algorithm thinks you watch them.
Which isnt how it works, as streams tagged as boobi wont appear unsearched on the front page according to twitch, algorithm or no algorithm.
