Viewer disparity on Twitch
The vast majority of Twitch channels go unwatched. According to data from SullyGnome, a Twitch analytics company, of the 16.5M channels that streamed last year, 15.6M (94%) averaged fewer than five viewers.
Having just 26 viewers on your stream is nearly enough to put a streamer in the top 1% of Twitch.
