    I’d like to think that, but I just went to twitch to see what was up and i’ve got one “18+ 🥵🥵” in my recommends despite the only things i’ve really watched on twitch being like 24 hours of marvel snap to collect rewards in that game (i left it in a tab running in the background because why the fuck would i watch other people play something I can just play? but i wanted the in game rewards), some classic TNA (which despite the name is just wrestling) and the first iteration of watch forever (the ai generated Seinfeld).

    So they’re definitely advertising it outside people explicitly looking for it.

    That said i have no problem with it, if this is how people are making their bag in our capitalist hellscape, get that bag…

      Ive gone actively searching for it and cannot find more than 2 at any given moment besides that one dude with the naruto pfp who is just autoplaying youtube twerk videos.

      And one of them who frequently does the topless cutoff videos has already needed to up the ante by having 4 girls on screen at once.

      Its not that big of a deal. There really isnt much to advertise. And its clearly not doing that well as a strategy to get viewers.
