5 most popular IRL streamers on Twitch

Although Twitch streaming initially focused on games, in 2016, Twitch announced their "In Real Life" (IRL) section, which allowed users to stream without playing or engaging in any particular video games.

This opened the doors for diverse content and interaction. Streamers now have the opportunity to leave their confined spaces, explore different locations, and even hold conversations with strangers or fans.

Over the last few years, this particular category has quickly become one of the biggest modes of content found in Twitch streaming.
