This weeks episode is me grumbling about Twitch best practices (like don't mute streams if you want to count as a viewer) and etiquette for almost an hour. Twitch can be a complicated maze of social interaction and it can be overwhelming to join new communities, or to become a streamer trying to forge a path forward. Hopefully this episode can help you navigate some of the unspoken social rules on Twitch.
