Title. Curious if I should get a Twitch account or not as currently I only have YouTube. Not sure if I want another corpo ad machine in my life.

I use my PC as a media machine in my living room. I absolutely use both. Twitch has the culture, while YouTube has the better video player.

Most importantly, just watch the streamer you want to watch live on the platform they choose.

I pay for YouTube premium so no ads there, and adblock works wonders for me and I don't see ANY ads on twitch.
