    YouTube is biting the best bits out of Twitch – doing everything right in 2022 that Microsoft did wrong in 2020

    DrDisrespect Dissatisfied With YouTube, IshowSpeed ​​Stays True To Scandals

    How is DrDisrespect? His viewer numbers looked really good in 2022, but the mustachioed streamer is not really satisfied. DrDisprespect feels let down by YouTube Gaming because Twitch streamers make a lot of money on YouTube – only he doesn’t get any of it.

    And how’s IShowSpeed? It also continues to be very successful. But scandals seem to continue to find him, or he them. It was only during the World Cup in Qatar that he showed racist behavior towards a football fan. But that doesn’t change his behavior or his viewership.

    On Twitch, another one has become really big. Kai Cenat has broken a new subscription record on Twitch, but he’s not really satisfied. You can read the whole story about the streamer on MeinMMO:
