Was having a good night streaming Minecraft with the wife then we got follow botted near the end of the stream.

I'm reminded of the terrible parts of streaming and now it's negatively affecting my view of it and my mental health.

There is no room for growth on twitch for new streamers or anyone with lower view counts.

Nobody gives a shit about the little guys and anytime I've made any headway or gotten traction in growing my channels, I'm shit upon.

Fine. If things don't improve, I'm done.

Fuck this.

I'm not a twitch person. Is "follow botting" a bunch of fake accounts using your channel to spam, or real channels spam-botting to beg for followers from your real audience?

It's a malicious attack on a person's channel that spams their channel with follows, offensive chat messages, or other forms of negative engagement in order to skew someone's analytics and channel standing into negative territory.

In extreme cases it can get the streamer permanently banned.
