"He does a great job of making me hate him" - Kick streamer N3on receives backlash for saying streaming is harder than competing in the Olympics

Controversial Kick streamer Ragnesh "N3on" has garnered social media attention after making bold claims about how difficult livestreaming is as a career. During a recent broadcast, N3on claimed that working as a streamer is the "hardest job in the world" in terms of mentally demanding work. While asserting that he wasn't "clip farming" by making such statements, the 19-year-old said:

"I'm not clip farming and I'm not doing any of this s**t. I mean this in the nicest way possible. I swear to god, on my life. On my life, I swear to god, mentally, not physically, mentally, working as a streamer is the hardest job in the world. You can't even compete, bro."

N3on then drew parallels between livestreaming and competing in the Olympics, remarking:

"It's harder to be a streamer than be in the Olympics. I swear to god! On my life. You guys have to understand. The stress, trying to top yourself, trying to meet the standards, trying to think the content... I swear to god! You can say clip farming, I don't give a f**k! You can say what you want. You don't understand because you're not a streamer. You don't get it. This is the hardest s**t in the world. You can ask any streamer. You can ask anyone."

N3on's comments elicited responses from over a thousand netizens on X, with user @SadMavsFan4177 commenting:

"I genuinely don't know if this dude is trolling or not but he does a great job of making me hate him," wrote X user @SadMavsFan4177.

One community member believed that the content creator hadn't worked a "real job":

"He's never had a real job in his life," commented X user @shahtty.

X user @RuggedTheDragon wanted to see the Indian-American personality "run a few laps":

"I want this guy to run a few laps. He'll be passed out before he can even reach the halfway point," stated X user @RuggedTheDragon.

Contrastingly, X user @NoseBleedersMMA seemed to agree with the Kick streamer's opinions, writing:

"The Olympics is once every four years, streaming is every day," tweeted X user @NoseBleedersMMA.

It's not just N3on, Twitch streamer FaZe Lacy also believes streaming is harder than a full-time job

N3on is not the only popular streamer to have compared livestreaming to another profession. On August 6, 2024, a one-minute video surfaced on X, in which Twitch streamer Nick "FaZe Lacy" stated that streaming is more difficult than working full-time jobs. According to the FaZe Clan member, livestreaming necessitates "social skills" that are more difficult than working a traditional nine-to-five job.
