There's not really anywhere better to stream at the moment. YouTube moderation and chat (which he relies on for content) sucks, Kick is a chud casino for children, TikTok is now owned by Israel.

He's also just not going to be the one to develop anything new, he's simply too locked into his 8-10 hour daily streams to do that. There is an opportunity to kneecap Twitch though, if someone were to create a streaming platform that only streamers who are reliably getting 1-2K+ can stream on. Twitch loses money basically because of all the small streamers that eat up resources stream in 1440k60fps to like 15 people.

He won’t obviously, cause of treatlerism and being tech averse, but he could start it

He really couldn't. Someone could approach him for seed money, but he's just a leftist himbo who shouts at his chat and eats food on stream as a full time job. He's not going to be developing anything. Investing is about the extent of what he's going to be capable of. At the beginning, it would likely only be him and maybe a couple other people that they could afford to have on there, and he would probably struggle to find and keep hosting, because it will be a lot easier for the ADL to harass hosting companies when it's just him.

p2p and hosting harassment curious-sickle not to mention how fuentes exists then?

And again viability of online peer streaming was demonstrated, a decade ago or more, the issue is finishing the damn thing (and making it popular enough, which might be a bigger hurdle)

Nick Fuentes exists because he's a government assets.

Alternatives exist, but an alternative that has low latency, high image quality, a strong chat function with emotes that can handle his extremely active chat, and strong moderation tool.

Doesn't PeerTube already do this?
