Your average normalfag's topics are limited to gossip, current events from streamlined news sources like CNN/Fox, sports, the latest Marvel/DC film and cheesy sitcoms. Most of them don't even know vtubers exist.

Hololive, especially EN, made vtubing a lot more streamlined, but it's not in normalfag territory yet.

The moment lewdtubing or vtubers being open about fetishes, porn, sex life etc, became a thing. It's literally the only connection most vtubers, even most JP ones have with anything with otaku culture, but it's a trick, in their privacy everyone is a degenerate with their own weird kinks and fetishes. But otaku fool themselves with the belief that a girl being into the porn stuff they are makes them someone similar to them, but no, they're still normalfags and so are most vtuber fans.

The truth is not many are into weird/geek/otaku culture but way more people likes porn, hentai, etc, most normalfags do. For a long time the only otaku side vtubing had, even back when Nijisanji started was just that and nothing else. In other world, vtubing as you know, has always been normalfag content.

Vtubing was never a hobby. It's a career.
Watching vtubers isn't even a hobby. It's just barely more interactive than television.

And? Vtubing in Japan is filled to the fucking brim with normalfags that don't give a shit about "muh kayfabe" or acting out character nonsense.
It's simply an avatar for the majority. This is a fact. It always has been. It was literally a fact before the term vtuber even existed.
Well maybe not so much the majority back then, it was a mix, hard to know for sure. There were a lot of people experimenting with avatars in various ways, far from normalfags, but there were also a lot of people using said tools to simply stream like any typical camstreamer.

Hobbies are to give one pleasure, it doesn't matter how that hobby is done, or if it is with others.
Sports are not an exclusively social hobby. There's probably well over a billion people worldwide that do and enjoy sports alone, if not more. (and there are many forms of said sports that are solo, like solo squash)

Everything is a hobby as long as it brings one joy and is regular.
