      You have to meet your audience where they are at. Twitch makes a lot of sense and has a lot of reach.

        You can reach your audience from a variety of channels. At least one of them should be free. This should be seeringly obvious to an org like EFF.

          Well that website links to livestream.eff.org, and that page says the stream will be “simulcast”, i.e. mirrored, to Twitch and Youtube. So the main channel is indeed free.

              Oh damn. I meant their website, but I didn’t notice they just embed a Twitch stream on their website, thought it was a self-hosted stream. Never mind me.

        A doctor cannot be in several places at once. That’s where your analogy falls apart.

                Would you like to share with the class what point you’re trying to make?

                  You cannot advertise the fediverse to people already on the fediverse. They are already using it.

                  You need to advertise to people who are on things like twitch, Facebook, X etc.

                  This stream is not for you, thus it is twitch specific.

                  May I ask that you start?

                  Can you explain to me why promoting the Feddiverse on Twitch is bad?

                  Promoting the Feddiverse on the Feediverse just seem like preaching to the choir.

                  That yours is not the only voice that matters. That other people are allowed to convey ideas and the world isnt just waiting with baited breath for you to bless us with yours.

          I’d say it holds up even more. All sick people go to hospitals and that’s where we employs doctors. EFF’s target audience[1] are using Twitch so they go there.

          1: I assume, since why would they use Twitch otherwise?

            Yes, once again, that’s why this analogy does not make sense. The EFF is not running a hospital, they’re running a livestream, which can happen in any of a dozen different places simultaneously.

      Perfect is the enemy of the good, aight?

      Checking every single ethical box will leave you with an audience of 1,5 nerds. For EFF, this would be a massive failure on their mission.

      EFF needs outreach, and Twitch provides it. Managing a political project is in a big way about pragmatism, and EFF maintains integrity where it matters.

        He just has to virtue signal against platforms that allow people to say things he doesn’t like.

        Plus you can’t trust people to accurately decide which people are ethical or not. Look at Israel, their agents and allies mindfuck the left and right with abandon, and even leftists will fall for it, castigating and rejecting tens of millions of people because they are “right” pointing to groyper twat faces as charicatures of all of them, while doing the same to the left on the right, associating you alll with their charichatures.
