Ive seen 2, max.

If this is your current state of twitch, its because you keep clicking on boobi. Quit clicking on boobi if you dont want to be seeing boobi.

Ive heard this over and over, but it's bullshit.

I watch half a dozen streamers on twitch. 4 apex legends streamers and 2 developers(all dudes because that seems somewhat relevant). I don't browse random streams and I don't click on anything.

Occasionally, I'll end up watching other streamers if my guys raid someone as they sign off. But never are they raiding "boobi" streams. It's usually other apex streamers or other devs.

The other day, home page was filled with tits and scantally clad ladies. The recommended feeds were almost all that.

So I'm not clicking on it. I'm not seeking it out. I'm not even hovering over it. But it was pushing that content hard.

I stream on Twitch. I see mostly video games. So I dunno? There are always randoms. But very rarely do I see the bikini stuff.

Just not true. I don’t have a twitch account and visited to see what it’s all about and it’s all over. Even if you peek inside the just chatting category it’s a huge majority of the top content

Of anything, what you state is the result of content filtering for yourself and not for everyone at large.

This might be a repost of an older meme when it was stíl true

Older meme? Twitch rolled back their barely nude positive rule by, like, the next day.

I'd like to think that, but I just went to twitch to see what was up and i've got one "18+ 🥵🥵" in my recommends despite the only things i've really watched on twitch being like 24 hours of marvel snap to collect rewards in that game (i left it in a tab running in the background because why the fuck would i watch other people play something I can just play? but i wanted the in game rewards), some classic TNA (which despite the name is just wrestling) and the first iteration of watch forever (the ai generated Seinfeld).

So they're definitely advertising it outside people explicitly looking for it.

That said i have no problem with it, if this is how people are making their bag in our capitalist hellscape, get that bag...

Ive gone actively searching for it and cannot find more than 2 at any given moment besides that one dude with the naruto pfp who is just autoplaying youtube twerk videos.

And one of them who frequently does the topless cutoff videos has already needed to up the ante by having 4 girls on screen at once.

Its not that big of a deal. There really isnt much to advertise. And its clearly not doing that well as a strategy to get viewers.

Yeah, OP has "why do these homosexuals keep sucking my cock?" energy.
