Again, depends upon the streamer, Cohhcarnage is a very famous streamer, so much so that he has a cameo in Cyberpunk 2077, but very few of his fans are kids at all but thats down to the way he presents and the content he provides (which has a far far greater appeal to adults than kids in its style and content). So it really does depend upon the streamer themselves, the likes of Dr Disrespect and Asmongold may well have a largely young fanbase but the likes of Cohhcarnage, Quill88 and itsmeJP have far older fanbases. Just as in many forms of entertainment , there is a wide range of entertainers from the fart gag Ade Edmondson/Rik Mayall types to the more cerebral Stewart Lee types. Streaming isnt really much different in that regard.

I only tend to watch him when there's a new game out and I'm wondering if to try it or not. I got into Apex and Warzone after watching him and Shroud play them for a while.
I do enjoy watching him rage though.

If there are streamers of the calibre of Stewart Lee, I'd LOVE some pointers!

I cannot see how launching your own platform results in all your sponsors dropping you. OK twitch may wish to drop him, or better yet surely the solution is locking him into twitch for even longer, not pushing him and others away to further push the other platform being a reality.
People are saying he's not just banned but he's done for good. Launching a platform doesn't seem to suggest being done for good to me. Potentially the opposite. I don't see it being true.

Some of them are hilarious
I think sponsors are coming back. However it could mean many millions loss for twitch so fair doos to them.

Ronnie ******* Pickering!
Do you know who I am. I'm Ronnie ******* Pickering!
I have watched some of these Dr. Disrespect videos/twitch and I'm not sure why he is/was worth what he was worth. Why would he get more over a working monthly 40 hour person?

Is this a serious question?

Have you seen his videos?

Just in case you're not being sarcastic and have actually been dwelling under a rock for the last 5 years:

I never really followed people on twitch and why they become popular. I'm not been sarcastic I genuinly didn't know. That link explains it if he was a big asset to games design.
Those figures are slightly off. Each sub is a minimum of 5 dollars a month (tier 2 is $9.99 and tier 3 is $24.99), and streamers get half of this. So with 30k tier 1 subs that's at least $75,000 a month. Crazy money.
These top streamers are multi millionaires. The Doc has over 4 million followers, 1.5 million subscribers who each pay monthly and that excludes donations and sponsoring, his net.worth is over 3.5 million. So pretty wealthy hence streaming is his full time job.
Sorry didn't see the link already posted
≠=============================
Here is the last tweet but still doesn't tell us very much. Doc seems to indicate he still doesn't know why.
