>You guys have female friends, right?
Much of the dynamics here touched on previously. If Kronii wanted to be a brotuber, there are a lot of better bros out there that you could watch instead.
Actually that does touch on something else we can note explicitly here; all interactions between different sexes inherently have an aspect of sex colouring them. It is what it simply is, and attempts to pretend it is something bad that should be avoided - or something that even could be avoided at all, in any case - are always and everywhere leading too trouble, as we have seen.
Of course there are many different forms that exact colouration can take. For example, a vtuber like Selen is low-key about it, but you can tell she appreciates her goslings, and doesn't make them feel put down by watching her. As any cultured consumer of quality doujinshi could certify, 'tomboyish' interests too, and interest in a girl as a girl, are not contradictory at all - and can in fact enhance each other, for that matter.

>I'm not your friend
There isn't really a whole lot to say about this one at this point. Streaming is not like broadcast tv or radio or newsprint, it is an extended phenotype. Live streamer, live audience, and the interrelation between them. Accidental implications (giving Elira the benefit of the doubt here) that undermine that dynamic are, naturally, one of the fasted ways to undermine yourself as a streamer.
There is a lot of possible nuance to this of course. For example, a streamer like Shigure Ui is great at roasting individual risuner-sans, but you don't get an overall sense of mean-spiritedness from her (that you would from somelike like say, saruel). You can tell she enjoys streaming, and enjoys the people tuning in to watch her, and vice-versa; people pick up on the subtle differences in rhetorical approach that arise from different attitudinal mindsets.
