Which is Better for Art Streams: Twitch or Picarto?

[ToxicRamen]

Even though I don't have many followers on my Tumblr or Instagram, I was thinking about doing art streams. But I was wondering which streaming account should I sign up for: Twitch or Picarto?

I was leaning towards Twitch because it's owned by Amazon and I have an Amazon Prime account which I could link with a Twitch account but I like that Picarto is geared towards art streams. But Twitch is also good for doing gaming streams and I could linked it with my ArtStation account.

But what do you guys think is better for art streaming?

Twitch also had the added advantage of enabling monetary donations. My friend only started streaming her art for two weeks when she made $75.

Right now I'm using Picarto and I quite like the ease of just plugging in and going, but I'm starting to consider Twitch as well, if not just for the money and different audience. There's just more set up to it, banners and the like.

yeah twitch lets you put those banners under your work which can be a bio or something, its nice. I dont really like picarto because you cant customize much and its just dark. Plus on twitch theres less people streaming art so you can gain viewers easier since youll be easier to find
