Geeking Out About TwitchCon: What We Loved, What Could Have Been Better, and Queer Joy!
Manage episode 336112672 series 2798593
We went to TwitchCon! And this is what we thought about it!
TwitchCon Amsterdam, July 16&17. We met up with so many streamers and community members we know from Twitch and it was the best time we've had in a long time.
We talk about some of the amazing panels we went to, notably the High Rollers actual play DnD podcast recording, the drag showcase, and the drag panel. We get all mushy about how much we love our Twitch friends. And we talk about some of the things we think could have been improved at Twitch, mainly the LGBTQIA+ panel and accessibility.
We also both came home with COVID-19 - sad times! But we would absolutely do it again, maybe with a few modifications, because the mental health piece of TwitchCon and hanging out with our friends far outweighed being ill for a week.
Did you go to TwitchCon? We'd love to hear about your experiences!
