Do any of you ever donate to big time streamers? (lemmy.world)

I was just thinking about this the other day. For example, I used to follow F1nn5ter. I liked his whole schtick. The "Stop Making Me Dress Like A Girl Dammit!" was fun in the beginning. A few times I contemplated sending a funny paid message, but never did.

He has obviously gone through some major changes since then. And I'm happy he's figuring his shit out. Even has an amazing girlfriend.

But I don't understand people who still send him 100 dollar dono's anymore. I mean His Only Fans is estimated to be pulling in 250K a month. He owns two houses and just recently purchased a Maybach (probably used, but still)

He has come right out and said he only streams on twitch because he want's to, not because he needs to.

So I'm just curious if any of you follow or donate any big streamer?

Nope, I tend to hate watching streams in general.

I hate the whole "shout out" to people who donate money, it breaks the flow.

The fun streams I have watched is when the streamer does zero shout outs but ask the chat what they should do, no polling, just watching the live response in the chat.
