Oh God I can't imagine what the TwitchCon must be like, I am sure it's a bunch of the "just chatting" people having fake and awkward interactions as the chat window is flooded with pogchamp emotes the entire time. I don't know how the fuck anyone finds that entertaining, but shit loads of people watch it.
I like to watch twitch at work, but I am almost always watching some retro streamers that are all fairly close to my age, and have around a few hundred viewers because there is actual interaction and discussion in the chat. The rest of twitch is pretty much dead to me, and I don't doubt for a second TwitchCon is as bad as the OP claims.
