Just being helpful and answering questions other people have is by far the most underrated method of "Networking" you can do. We're all in this streaming/content game together!

I need to get this account active again. A reminder that we immediately ban anybody claiming to be a "stream promoter" in our community. Even when they aren't technically a scam, they're 100% useless in bringing real people to your stream and community.

If you want to know where we stand as a community: Person from Gen AI company joins our Discord to promote their AI service. I delete because we don't allow GenAI/crypto/web3 promotion. I go to their web site, and see them showcasing an Andrew Tate clip. Thinking a predator helps your case? Banned

Indie devs, you can join our Discord server and promote your game to our streamer community, no strings attached! When you join, DM Jimorian for the industry role to unlock that channel. #indiedev #streamers #streaming #gamedev #twitch

Hadn't been on this account in a few days, but wanted to wish everybody a belated Happy New Year! Here's to all our plans and goals working out in the best way possible! 💜

Reminder that we have a Starter Pack for members of our community. You can sign up in our Discord (link in bio and pinned) to be added to the pack. go.bsky.app/PpSyjxN

"Artists" that make posts like this with a gazillion hashtags and generic logo designs or stream assets get blocked. This isn't twitter, and we want to facilitate contacts between streamers and REAL artists, not with spammers who are likely to get streamers copyright struck with bad copy/paste art.

Happy Thanksgiving to those that celebrate! What Black Friday sales are you taking advantage of? (Online of off)

What our community offers. A friendly place to hang out and connect with streamers. 2 stream teams: Community team open to all after some activity. "Alpha" team for those with 15+ CCV Industry promotion channel for devs to promote their games with no strings attached. discord.gg/twitchkittens

One thing to give a big think about in any kind of content creation: An Order of Magnitude Changes Your Life. Sticking to streaming, but you can apply it elsewhere and see what it does. 2 viewers, you're hanging out with friends. 20 viewers, you have a community. 200 viewers, you make Partner. 🧵

Quick social media headsup from the olden days: do not subscribe to any blocklists of which you do not -absolutely- know and trust the creator. A lot of trolls will make genuine looking blocklists, and then slowly start adding good people to them. Always verify account names & handles!

When creating *any* media in a crowded field, "good enough" usually isn't. We all need to find ways within our style and temperament to make things that are *compelling* to the viewer. MAKE them stay when they pop into our stream, and then make them want to come back.

If you are having issues with the app, finding your current handle, you might have to try again in a few hours. Their handle service is fairly overwhelmed because of all the new sign ups yesterday. It should resolve today according to them, but I can’t guarantee that.

Hey Vtubers! You might notice I have a new handle! Well, it's actually a community handle that anyone is able to get! Head over to vtubers.social and follow the instructions to grab one! And make sure to tell your vtuber friends!

Indie devs are welcome to join our Discord to promote their games with no strings attached. Just DM Jimorian, our CM, when you join to get our industry role to unlock the promo channel. Discord.gg/twitchkittens (Also get added to our starter pack in that channel)

A large number of people who stream will stop streaming some day. For all kinds of reasons. I think the important thing is that we don't end up regretting the time we spent doing it. Make friends, and make memories, because those are the only things you're guaranteed to take from it.

A big mistakes a previous manager for our community made on the other site was using a retweet bot for when our members went live. I'm pretty sure that crippled our reach, even though we had 1000s of followers, as a lot of people muted the account to avoid the spam. Won't make that mistake here.

One thing I'm tempted to do in our Discord is in our welcome channel with the React Roles, add 1 more at the bottom that literally says "react to this if you are a bot/scammer to get banned". Because so many react to get all roles just in case they unlock channels/members they can spam at.

It's amazing how easy it is to spot the fake "artists" who post the same spam no matter what site they're on. When one of those follows us, they get a block. One of the goals we have as a community is finding a way to put REAL artists in touch with streamers for commissions. Ideas welcome on this.

How's everybody enjoying Dragon Age: The Veilguard so far?

Twitch streamers, be sure to have a chatbot command that links to your "subscribe" page on the web site! By using their browser instead of the Twitch app to sub, this saves your viewers the 30% upcharge by Apple and Google, none of which goes to the streamer.

Time for everybody to share their kittens, even if they're not the Twitch variety (or even cat variety, all pets welcome!) Here's Lucy and Sally.

One of the keys to streamer networking is to just be supportive and helpful in other communities besides your own. When in another stream, be active like you'd like to see in your own chat. Answer questions, chat with the mods and other viewers. Bring positive energy wherever you go. :)

OK, went a little crazy in following some starter packs, but there are so many cool people around here to follow! Can't wait to see what everybody is up to in our feed. 💜
