The popularity of video games has exploded in recent years, with millions of people hooked on the sensation of being able to play alongside one another. Nowadays, not just are there multiple platforms to choose from, but there are also special gaming laptops, mobile devices, browsers and even set-top boxes specifically designed for gaming. One service which has established itself as a leading streaming platform for video games is Amazon-owned Twitch.
Twitch is an easy to use platform with excellent service and high adoption rate that makes it ideal for live streaming. Despite a few issues, nearly forty percent of the live stream still takes place on Twitch, and thus it does have the lionâs share as compared to platforms such as Mixer, Facebook Watch, and YouTube Live.
Twitch attracts over two million broadcasters every month. The number has been growing each year because of the simplified streaming process. Some aspiring streamers have found recognition through r/Twitch in the past few years, but nobody watches. Many aspiring streamers face this battle, and in the past few years, a lot of them have found some recognition through r/Twitch.
Today, we will be reviewing the underrated subreddit r/Twitch. You will find all types of discussions surrounding the platform. You can ask a question, share some quality content, or provide feedback.
My recent experience on r/Twitch
Someone on r/Twitch has the sixth sense, and they noticed that someone had the same question. They posted a question to this subreddit, asking if your Twitch Prime loot will be gone if you cancel your Amazon Prime video subscription.
After I saw the answers, I was relieved. And if you have the same question, then you should know this- If you're in a Prime Video only country and you just canceled your subscription, it won't affect your loot in Twitch Prime. Sure, you won't be able to access and gain more, but the loot will be there.
About r/Twitch - Community & Members
This subreddit was created on August 9th, 2010 and has since gathered a following of nearly 700,000 users. At any given time, you'll find around 5-10,000 users online. That's quite a good ratio compared to some of the subReddits with millions of members.
How to access r/Twitch?
If you're not a Reddit user, you can sign up for a free account. Once you have an account, you can follow subreddits, comment on posts, and even post anything on any of the subreddits.
have banned several users for harassment
Several users have been banned from r/Twitch for harassment.
With a community of over eighty thousand active users, it can be difficult for an individual to manage everything on their own. Given the high volume of posts daily, moderating them and ensuring they comply with the rules can be a challenging job.
At the time of writing this review, there are ten moderators on r/Twitch. ?eDIVINEWRAITHo,? ?Zcotticus,? ?Havryl,? ?OSSini,? ?boothin,? ?twitch_General,? ?Picante_Live,? ?Jakuu,? ?JazzB3ar?, and ?Twitch Subreddit.?
Why should you follow r/Twitch?
There are a lot of posts on Twitch each day, covering a variety of games. One user commented that this subreddit is just a lower viewer circle jerk with subtle self-promoting. This attracted around 2,000 upvotes.
Community Engagement
I was surprised to see that the community is not as integrated as I thought. Though the number of active members is high, people do not interact a lot. An average top post on any given day does not exceed the 1,000 mark. Forget that, the best content of the month, attracted just 2,100 upvotes. The only positive thing about the interaction is the comments. There are more than 50-70 comments on each popular post, and some even exceed the 2000 mark.
Bi-Weekly Contest
I love to see subreddits taking the time to do something specific for their community. R/Twitch is special because it hosts regular contests, which makes users feel involved and appreciated. Each month there are two contests, and the results are covered under "Quick updates" and "Events" sections. For instance, r/Nutfee won the r/Twitch Clip Contest (23rd April) and U/FleshlyDelight won the r/Twitch Clip Contest (10th April).
Reddit Gold
On an average day, you will find at least 2-3 posts on r/Twitch with gold. If you dive deeper into the threads, you will find 1-2 golds being given to cheeky/helpful/sarcastic users. Gold is given by a user to a user in a way that shows how much respect they have for and adore their fellow members in the community.
Filter by flair
I would be unhappy if r/Twitch didn't have the Filter by Flair option. There's so much content floating around the page, it's hard to imagine browsing without proper content segmentation. Thanks to the mods, we have an in-depth category based "Filter by flair," wherein, you can choose from the following options - "Community Event," "PSA," "Question," "Guide," "Discussion," "Tech Support," "Clip," and "Mod-Approved Ad."

Design
Bleed Purple is the community's slogan and a sign that it's a passionate Twitch-related group. The design is clean and simple, but all of us can appreciate it when people try to fuse their subreddit with the Reddit icon. I really love the icon on this subreddit. Other than that, everything is pretty standard except for the purple color cover and similar shades in the "Filter by Flair" category. At the top of the page - right under the name - you'll find options such as "Posts," "Wiki," "Clip Contest Winners," "Community Events," "AMA," and "Subreddit Links."
There is a ?Create Post? bar on the hero section and sorting features, such as Hot, New, Top, and Rising. Towards the right of the page are important sections such as Filter by Flair, Events, Quick Updates, Rules, and more.

on the reddit post are confirmation.
I have to admit it: I'm finished viewing Twitch on any other platform than a PC browser - 1,900 upvotes on the reddit post are confirmation.
I was originally pessimistic about streaming because I didn't think it would be popular or have a large audience, but then I followed one person who upvoted all of my streams and my outlook completely changed.
