        A lot in the sense that a lot of musicians make more than you. Which is to say, most of the ones you can name make a lot, but many more make nothing.

          and musicians still work to make money or at least do it as a side hussle, it doesn’t mean it isn’t a job like op was implying

          vtubers get paid for providing entertaient, same as actors and live casters. I don’t understand your train of thought

              doesn’t clarify the point youre trying to make, if vtubers make a living entertaining people then its a job. just because you dont like watching doesn’t make that any less true

              this is coming from someone that doesn’t actively go watch vtubers, if I like the person and what they’re streaming and they happen to have an animated avatar I have no issues though

              and yeah like music as stated below, its usually a side hussle because you need to be entertaining to make it in the entertainment industry. crazy how that works lol
