What I find stupid is that people will keep using it after all the shit they are doing. I mean, it's twitch, you can live without it. And yet, people will accept this bullshit and keep going because the alternative of changing platform is just too bothersome for them. In the end, I'm starting to think we have the internet we deserve.
I only use it for in-game drops once in a blue moon and even then it's on 160p with no sound with two ad blockers on, minimized in the background. So even if they somehow serve me ads I won't see them lmao
Twitch channel point miner.
I have it running as a docker container and it just collect drops and points for me.
Honestly. The only reason I even have that was so I had points to gamble with during Eve Online's alliance tournament. I don't watch anything else on twitch.
I appreciate you mentioning this.
The point miner specifically was of little use to me, but it had never occurred to me that an application could authenticate and then just pretend to watch things. This lead me to the twitch drop miner, which seems to be exactly what I’m looking for.
