I agree that this is a wider problem with streams as a genre.
I think the main problem is that starting a stream and talking about whatever in order to appeal to a larger and larger audience is rewarded rather than good research and preparing high quality content, like on YT or TikTok.
It’s just not possible when you’re streaming and would defeat the purpose. It’s all quantity over quality, so assholes get to the top.
TicTok is a 99% low quality garbage too, on top of being a data hording machine for China.
YouTube isn’t any better nowadays either, it’s all just clickbait garbage and real life vlog type shit.
Frankly, the internet was better when it was mostly nerds filling it. But I suppose now that it is mainstream, it is just a mirror of society.
