Kinda same. I'm never sure whether to call myself a 'fan' or not because I'm fine with catching clips and highlights once in a while and have never actually joined a streamer's streams.

Good on them for the endurance but I can't imagine tuning into something live for 4+ hours.

SA

Though if the content is good I have watched 4 hour videos over the span of like several days. Just not all at once!

I have always felt that way about Critical Role. I cannot imagine staying up late to watch the whole thing in one go, especially now that it's not even live! It takes me three or four days to get through one episode.

The thought of live-streams horrifies me. No real plan except to shoot the shit with people, usually nothing to do with the content I came to see about? Reminds of those dumbass podcasts that run an hour and a half longer than necessary because they can't bring themselves to edit out their long conversations about what's been going on in their lives, all there with little injokes that can't possibly amuse anyone but themselves.

(By talking about their lives I don't mean like, hey guys this is why we haven't been posting as much or we're choosing to pivot because this and that. It's, "hey bro, how's Katrina's cucumber plant issue?" Who the fuck is Katrina, why do I care about her cukes? and "Dude we went and saw that exhibition on garlic milling through the centuries, you totally have to see it, here's why" It's a fucking ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC PODCAST WHY WOULD I CARE?!)

see, this is me. the only livestreams I've actively chosen to watch are people in Japan walking or biking, exploring an area I've never seen, and it's great when it's 2am cold and snowy here but lovely warm sunshine in Japan. but I don't use any chats so now they're talking to people in an invisible chat and asking about regulars' doings and it takes me right out, because it heightens the awkward parasocial quality of terminal online-ness. I ain't here to pretend I'm friends with walkaround guy, I'm here to see the samurai house your caption promised.

Same! I am subbed to my favourite streamer on Twitch just to support him, but I haven't actually watched a stream in forever. I have no idea how people handle chat while watching game play; I feel like I have to read chat, but then I completely miss what the streamer is doing.

That's why I also dislike it when chat is visible in the YouTube vods. My brain can only handle one input and apparently it defaults to reading whenever possible.

Lots of people don't read the chat or simply hide it. If there are too many people in the chat, you can't follow what's going on there anyway. And yeah I don't really like streamers who show the chat on screen.

I watched a few streams of smaller creators back in the pandemic while working (work was extremely slow during that time), but I can't imagine having the time or patience to do that in my free hours...

You're not a bad fan! I don't really care for the interacting aspect of streaming. However, I mostly watch almost all my favorite streamers live because I find replay videos too slow-paced unless they've been heavily edited. I find listening or watching streamers as I do something else or they interact with the chat easier.
