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.

Youtube has better quality and rewind but twitch has more interesting chat, even if it is just spamming emojis. Twitch chat has a vibe, feels like you are in a stadium. Also for gaming streams, twitch is a must. Also you need a browser extension like 7tv to appreciate the chat.
