To me, it opened up a lot of things that helped making my stream a bit more interesting. Emotes, channel point redemptions, transcoding so I could push for a better quality (when I do get access to it), the ability to work with certain extensions without paying (Crowd Control), as well as some random stuff to the side of it.

This does come at a price though, I cannot go and be "HEY, LOOK AT THIS GREAT MOMENT WE JUST LIVED ON STREAM" on Twitter. I have to wait until the next day which absolutely sucks. Same for VODs. There's also the problem with the current ad system for affiliates which hinders growth as well. You'd be better off having multi-streams, or streaming on Youtube to get bigger at this point.

It's not necessarily a "scam", but it is a "risk". If you're willing to work and wade through all of these restraints, go for it. But if you are doing this for fun? Heck no.

In my POV. I recently got out of my affiliate contract and shifted to multi streaming with Twitch and YouTube. Seeing how Twitch’s direction is going and social media as a whole is changing up for more opportunities. Also cause I have an opportunity to monetize on YT. I was on the first wave of affiliates back in 2017. Although it was a great way to make some income when I was able to grow an audience of my own to have subs, the last couple of months felt like it was holding me back with exploring other platforms while still wanting to keep my twitch core community with it. So losing out on the perks with Sub emotes that I easily placed on BTTV and channel points (found an alt using StreamLabs bot.) The new change with multistreaming helped me explore more opportunities and still kept my core audience. Overall I always encourage streamers who are thinking about growing opportunities is to make content on other platforms and network with streams you can vibe with.

I know there’s many ways to approach the situation I am in but I am happy with my choices. Twitch Affiliate is great if you’re just willing to just stream on Twitch, it has its ups with perks. Numbers fluctuate so don’t get it to you but hoping it goes good for ya and have fun with streaming. Good luck on your streaming career and choice!

In all honesty, twitch affiliate helped me evolve my channel as it brung a new way of monetising my content. And by having that small income stream, I was able to buy items to improve my content like decent lighting for my camera.

And when it comes to Twitch ads, you as a streamer are able to toggle them off (which is what I have done).

Personally, I took affiliate the moment it was offered to me.

I haven't grown much in numbers, but with some tweaking you can make ads way less intrusive. Unsubbed viewers will get a preroll, but other than triggered ads during my BRB scene, they shouldn't get ads during the stream.

Also, Twitch has added more benefits to being affiliate. When I enrolled I only had 1 static and 1 animated emote slot. Over the past 14 months since, they changed it to 5 static slots from the get-go, plus an additional 5 follower emotes.

Channel points are also powerful tools you gain access to, if used right. They encourage engagement.

A single preroll ad is a small price to pay. It's the streamers who choose the 55% ad cut method who could drive away new viewers, if you ask me.
