Streamer Trymacs spends hours on Twitch, only to watch himself on TikTok – but not because he is self-absorbed

Trymacs schaut sich selbst auf TikTok an.

The Twitch streamer Trymacs talked in his podcast about why he only watches himself on the TikTok platform.

In his podcast “Offline + Ehrlich”, which he runs together with Twitch streamers Florian “Varion” Kiesow and Sascha “unsympathischTV” Hellinger, Trymacs explained that he would only spend “5-10 minutes on TikTok.” He has trained his TikTok algorithm to show him only clips of himself.

These are always clips from his latest streams, whether they are his own or others where he was a guest. After that, only “brutal shit” comes, as Trymacs says, and he would close the app.

“Only 5-10 minutes on TikTok”

Why does Trymacs watch himself on TikTok? Trymacs further explained that he only watches clips of himself to get feedback from outside the community. According to him, the hate on TikTok is huge when a clip of him goes around.

These “haters” would never watch an entire Twitch stream of Trymacs but would be able to comment under TikToks about him. This “feedback,” as he calls it, seems to interest the Twitch streamer.

For example, Trymacs was in the final of a quiz show organized by Papaplatte and answered most of the questions incorrectly. Through the comments under the TikTok, Trymacs can see how people react to him. Whether they understood the time pressure Trymacs was under, whether they found it funny that he didn’t know something, or whether they would just get aggressive.

His podcast colleague Varion aptly summarized the situation: “So you basically look at a monitor for 12 hours and see yourself, and then you close it to go to TikTok to see you again.” (on Spotify from minute 06:00).

Clips of Trymacs are constantly shared on various social media platforms. A video clip has existed for several years and continues to cause laughter. Now, Twitch streamer Trymacs finally explained and says what it’s all about.
