Fantastic - thank you! It was a great opportunity to play at HiveFest. My weekly radio show is also streamed to my Twitch channel and already about 75% of the people watching (or at least the ones who chat) are from Hive - many from the @risingstargame community. HiveFest has been an opportunity for me to get to know many other people and communities on Hive.

Any plans for multi-streaming to vimm, odysee, youtube etc?

So - I already multi stream to Twitch (my channel), Brixton Radio and Brixton Radio's Mixcloud.

Until a little while ago I was ALSO multi streaming to VIMM. I stopped because:

  • it was costing me $10 a month for a premium restreaming package (there are a few free options but I have to also do Mixcloud for Brixton Radio and I couldn't find a way of doing that AND VIMM).
  • I want to be reactive and interactive to my viewers, and the more channels there are the harder it is to do that.
  • Twitch offers some amazing functionality - my BOT works with it that lets listeners interact with lights/modes in my studio.
  • But the biggest reason - I tried promoting all the channels equally to my followers and almost without exception they opted to watch it on the Twitch channel (even the Hive people - at least half of my viewers are on Hive).

I'm open to reviewing it again in future but for now that's why I'm on the channels I'm on.

What are the times? I should look ya up on twitch. A lot of creators are complaining about the new twitch monetization rules

My regular show is 9pm UK time every Monday

Ah yeah so I don't actually/yet monetize on Twitch. I have been eligible for their affiliate program a long time but decided not to join. There terms for affiliate would mean I would not be able to dual stream to Brixton Radio and I would also not be able to publish my content elsewhere for 24 hours. Normally I post a highlight on 3Speak the next day (this week I was a bit later!). I might later look at monetization options outside of Twitch's own tools - for now though I'm just building my channel and audience.
