What’s so wild or appealing about this — that would entice someone to continue their time on TikTok?
a lot of people want to be simulated every moment of every day, so they need the constant hit of dopamine
it's not the best comparison imo. For twitch's own gifting system(Bits), streamers get 100% of the bits when streamers cash out(100bit = $1 but when purchasing it, 100bit costs ~$1.3). the 50/50 split for the subscriptions(when a viewer subscribe to a streamer - 3 tiers, the cheapest being $4.99, and streamers would get half of that)
