I found out over my birthday that it's cheaper to ship figurines from Japan than it is to ship them from the US and that changes a lot about my spending habits...

My least favorite about creator marketing is companies sending you emails about "available offers for you" but then you go to their website and the required minimum viewership is 500.

Some of you accidentally had Stream Suite installed unwillingly in the latest Vertical Update. We've found the problem button, it was pointing to the wrong URL, and a fix has been released. Vertical 1.6.6 is now live to prevent further disaster. Our deepest apologies for the confusion!

Would love to know if there's any people out there that have knowledge on running mid to large sized Discord Communities. I manage the @aitum.tv community, and would love to know if there's any gaps in my knowledge where I could improve our workflow.

I've recently been confronted by the fact that I for some reason get extremely frustrated by my perception of what seems like "surface level" reactions to things. It's hard for me to grasp why anger is directed towards companies while it's global politics causing the issues at hand.

General tip if you use the new Badge system Twitch added. It seems the notification gives you no channel name, and clicking it goes to a help article. Probably smart if creators put channel names in the badge names for now.

I used to love seeing new software. Especially if it was both functional and nicely designed. Nowadays though, almost every time that "cool new thing" turns out to either be infested with AI slop, or made with it. Or they add AI sometime in their lifetime. Makes me real sad...

The only "AI" in Aitum products is in the name. Which is the way it will stay. Aitum is just a few creators, with a dream to make cool stuff; and give you the power to make cool stuff too. Over the next few weeks, we'll introduce the humans behind the magic. Stay tuned for some amazing stories.❤️

A good thing to learn about the creator sphere is that there's a tendency to blame "The machine" instead of looking inward and thinking "Hey, maybe my content is becoming too same-y". Evolving your content should be a constant thing you do, not something you only do when views are down.

Sorry I'm gonna hop on this. Y'all need to stop blaming Twitch or some boogeyman thing they're "doing" on why your views are low. The ad break screen thing already got debunked and discussed by an employee at twitch. The extension that shows your "real" view count also isn't accurate.

Some day companies will learn Open Source _does not_ mean "I can slap my logos on this and now I can release this as my own product"

Protip for streamers: Communities of companies in the industry are NOT the place for you to swear and use hate speech. It's not just us who are blacklisting you, there's a lot of other companies also watching the communities of other companies.

Yo @barrycarlyon.co.uk , IGDB / Twitch Category question -> Two small'ish games both called "Boundless" seem to be having issues where assigning yourself to one gets you moved to the other. How do we get that fixed?

So my brother is 2 hours late for dinner because of a parking system malfunction. He was stuck inside of a parking garage the entire time..

twitter: new update, every time you post, elon musk is literally going to break into your house and shit directly into your mouth users: that sucks but….i mean i HAVE to stay on there…..
