Twitch. I figure their corporate masters are about equally evil, so if you really have to choose one you may as well go with the one that still has better discoverability, community, and chat. #AlternatePlayer makes it tolerable.

Twitch is better for seeing the chat next to the video. YouTube is better to watch a stream that is in progress from the beginning.

YouTube, but there are a few creators that only stream on Twitch that I like. The content is more important than the platform to me.

Also, weirdly, I find Twitch generally has the less toxic chat - Twitch as a company tends to be better at policing their platform while YouTube really doesn’t give a shit… Moderators are definitely more impactful, but Google really doesn’t give a shit about moderating.

I don’t watch live streams. It’s the same concept like watching TV. I think YouTube and video on demand has been a great achievement.

Twitch is better for audience integration like what happens in dougdoug’s stream, and unless it’s some major event or well produced ttrpg I can’t be arsed to watch unedited content.

Currently twitch because there are the people, I like to see streaming their games.

I would prefer YouTube because no advertisements due to uBlock. I know there are twitch adblockers but they don’t work very well.

Also twitch seems to be filled with softcore/ lots of almost sexual content which I don’t want to see.

Youtube has better quality and rewind but twitch has more interesting chat, even if it is just spamming emojis. Twitch chat has a vibe, feels like you are in a stadium. Also for gaming streams, twitch is a must. Also you need a browser extension like 7tv to appreciate the chat.

Twitch because the points i can redeem to ask cool things ro creators

YouTube because of the better video controls.

YouTube but use NewPipe or SmartTube. YouTube shares more revenue with streamers than Twitch.

No.

twitch for the interactivity and availability of broadcasters but youtube for the interface and mobile apps (i have youtube premium)

The couple of streamers I watch regularly, all post thier streams to YouTube the next day, so I watch there. I do still have a twitch account, so I can use the free sub I get with Amazon prime to sub to one of them. Not much, but better than nothing, as they don’t have a patreon account. A secondary reason for maintaining that twitch account is to reserve my particular username, just in case.

In terms of twitch chat and/or interactivity, I just could not possibly care less. I use FreeTube for all of my YouTube watching, these days, and I keep comments completely turned off. On the rare occasion I do actually watch something live on twitch, I have chat completely hidden.

I use my PC as a media machine in my living room. I absolutely use both. Twitch has the culture, while YouTube has the better video player.

Most importantly, just watch the streamer you want to watch live on the platform they choose.

I pay for YouTube premium so no ads there, and adblock works wonders for me and I don’t see ANY ads on twitch.
