They just do. I don't really know how to explain it. I just think they haven't figured out the formula for being good at the medium. Males are much more suited for being idiots on twitch.

It also doesn't help that the majority of vtuber fans are male and men don't want to watch other men since that makes you gay.

Male Chuubas are doing it wrong.
You can't succeed through weeb content because weebs always love seeing cute girls more than people they relate with.
For gaming content though, the good male streamers tend to get a lot of subs by generally being entertaining.
If we just expand Vtubing past more than just a weeb (and occasionally furry) thing, the male Chuubas will come.
I'm planning to start streaming soon. I'll try to appeal to the weeb jokes, and general gaming humor depending on the game or situation.

There are some good entertaining male vtubers, but they are pretty rare.
Most of them are either depressed creepy catboys constantly talking about being "wholesome", insufferable trannies graduating every 2 months because they're having an existential crisis everytime or just boring dudes playing boring games.

I mean to a point. The avatar is already as sexualized as it can be (in regards to L2D) so after the whole anime bait, vtuber streamers kind of have to be entertaining and have personality unlike normal girl streamers that can just bait their titties and have an audience.
They kind of have to be entertaining past the avatar unlike normal women who can use their bodies so vtubers kind of needed to by necessity be actually good entertainers because the L2D can only work for so long at holding attention by itself.

She'll still be miserable but it gives her the impression she doesn't need to pay for a facsimile of human contact which is what simps do.

>With mental health issues the goal is management since cure is generally impossible.
That's true, but you know, I believe strongly in live and let live. If I have to work with a schizophrenic person that take his meds and isn't affected too much by his condition, so be it. On the other hand, people that try to get you into their little games or things like that, they can fuck off, even if they're perfectly mentally healthy

>Although considering the rarity of actual trannies what you met were in fact probably just poor aspies who got groomed.
Probably, you have to be a bit on the spectrum to do software for a living. I think it's a good thing though, that means I can more easily get along with my colleagues

It varies from person to person. Some get their pills, ask to be called "she" and that's it, they'll act like normal people. Some other will insist on talking about politics all the time, talking about veganism all the time, and of course practice object-oriented programming. Those are big red flags of someone that isn't doing well. As the other person said, many were probably groomed/baited into it, so their level of dysphoria is lower than "real" trans people, and thus their mental instability is lower as well

What's the deal with OOP and trannies? Does it attract them with rigidity they lack it their own lives? Also ruby and trannies?

>What's the deal with OOP and trannies?
They really like to be right (autistic tendencies), so the minute they discover something that looks like The Truth, they will study it and preach it everywhere (see: TDD, Robert Martin in general, things like that). The useless piles of abstractions also appeal to their autism. Making "clean" code that's "well abstracted" and "respect the SOLID principles", they can understand. Helping the business, helping the clients, they can't.

>Also ruby and trannies?
Ruby in general was a reaction to rigid enterprise development, which used to not welcome fruitcakes like them. Some of them are still skilled, so they ended up in the Ruby community, which then selected more and more for fruitcakes by group cohesion. You can also do all your OOP patterns in Ruby, so it's double the fun for them. Maybe something about "dynamic typing that reflects the fluid nature of the world, like someone can be born a male and become a female" for them?

This is beautiful, and I will absolutely repost it to programmer friends for giggles.
