Community Building
Starting a Discord can be a great way to increase connections within your community! You can also join other Discord groups to promote your streams or get advice from others!
Discord - Group Chat That's All Fun & Games
X/Twitter can be a little suspicious for sure, but it's home to a lot of streamers! Reach can be hard but it's a bit of a streaming hub!
X. It’s what’s happening
I've really been enjoying Bluesky as a Twitter/X alternative! Utalizing lists is key. Check what hashtags will get you on different lists! There's also a large art community there.
