Random thing; Not really meant to sound mean, but it’s important to hear;

Don’t Like a person’s Stream annoucement post. Just don’t, especially if you’re not going to reblog or go to the stream yourself. If they’re a streamer that struggles to get a streaming audience, all it does is sting for the artist, severely. As both a streamer and the friend of other streamers there is nothing more heartbreaking than several likes on a stream announcement, only for there to be 1-0 watchers at the actual stream. It’s discouraging beyond belief. I know some of you may mean well when you just like such a post (as a way of “I saw it!” or “I support what you’re doing!”), but unlike liking some other types of posts, it has far far less benefit to the OP.

Either go and watch the streams (and also potentially interact with them), and/or reblog/share their streams so that they can get a chance of a wider audience. Support through reblogs/shares for a streamer, not from likes.
