I come to this place and find that you cram all discussion of the actual streamers into one thread, so it's nearly impossible to follow just one streamer or community…
The single thread thing is a tradition and a good way to get exposure to vtubers you don't normally follow.
Basically this. One may not
like it, but it does force you to branch out and learn a little bit more about the people you don't follow. It can teach you about
why you don't like the things that you don't like, and might help you find more that you do like.
For two examples of that: if it weren't for the one-thread format, I would only ever be in the Hololive thread, or if you go even more granular, only the IRyS and Mumei threads.
Maybe I wouldn't ever realize how much I like Fauna if I were only in those 2 threads, and I
definitely would not have known about Pippa and by extension, Lisa, so the one thread format is what brought THE Chuunicutie Lisa into my life.
And on the negative flip side of that; I'd never have known about the coom-baiting of nijimales, the skankiness of VShojo, or the transgender-ness of indie ENVtweeters. Granted, by my own bias, I mostly pay attention to the low-lites of said groups, but it still pays to have that knowledge so that I can have a slightly more informed take when forming my opinions.
Also, with a multi-thread format, how do you realistically deal with collabs? Do you talk about Pippa/Lisa collabs in the Phase Connect, Tsunderia, Pippa, or Lisa thread? Or does each of those threads have it's own insular community of 3 people having their own conversations with one another in their own echo chamber?
TLDR; Yeah maybe it's a little annoying to not be able to only see posts about the people you care about, but I believe the positives of the format outweigh the negatives, even for people who don't like it.
