Cinna on why she ignores Twitch stats

    by Silvestre: Twitch

    She hasn't looked at her Twitch stats or tracker in two years, and she doesn't think they matter. Her success is measurable without numbers. After moving to Austin, being around people obsessed with stats made her uncomfortable. She doesn't check her own or anyone else's. If Emi or Bonnie had higher views, she'd congratulate them, not get upset. #Twitch

    Tracker in two years. Like, unironically, I don't think I've looked at it in two years. I don't think I have ever looked at my view count or my anything. Why? Because I don't think it matters. I think that the measure of my success is seeable without statistics. Does that make sense? and also when I moved to Austin there was a lot of people around me who were like obsessed with it and it like almost like itched me a little bit because I was new I was new to Austin like I'd never I'd never been to Austin I'd never been around that before and most of my career I was not around that no shade but all shade um and like I think that like because of that I've never really like like I don't sit there and like look at my stats I don't look at other people's stats I don't really care about what the fuck is going on like I've never I cannot imagine unironically having a day where like let's say Emmy had like I'm actually trolling about this because it's kind of funny but like I can't imagine having a day where Emmy or Bonnie had higher views than me. And I came out of my room and I'm like, how dare you? No, like most of the time I'm like, oh my God, you did so good today. And then I move on with my day. You know what I mean? I just like, I don't know.
