You're not necessarily wrong, but the people who create the content I enjoy are on Twitch, so to me it is worth it. Everybody values things differently
It is not as simple as install uBlock Origin. I have uBlock, it is very easy to install a plugin.
However, every other day the current ad block solution stops working for twitch and you need to install multiple plugins (uBlock, TTV LOL), modify your ublock, or use alternate twitch UI which has no features, and since it changes so frequently I need to manually keep up to date with the changes on github for multiple plugins and scripts. Not to mention none of that works on mobile when you're away from home, I use Pi Hole and it doesn't block twitch ads. The ad block doesn't work on chromecast or other devices.
Their ads are super aggressive, it is literally impossible to surf the website with ads. Every time you switch streams you're served an ad which makes it very difficult to find people to watch or to follow multiple perspectives (I mainly watch RP).
For a few bucks a month I don't have to deal with it and I watch Twitch more than any other streaming platform or social media, so to me it is worth the ease and consistency of use by just having turbo. The only two subscriptions I have are YouTube Premium and Twitch Turbo because I don't get ads and I don't have to deal with blocking them.
I pay for twitch turbo because I watch twitch for hours upon hours and keeping up with the latest ad block for twitch is more effort than it's worth to me. Especially when on devices where ad block is more challenging.
But as you said, in the more complex UIs like Lemmy, Mastodon, PeerTube, it would be a challenge to make the different forms of content fit the same structures. Micropub isn't exactly nice to look at, but it is basic enough to be able to serve the different types of content... kinda
Full disclosure I can be completely wrong, but this is my understanding.
I don't believe it is possible today to connect your Lemmy to Misskey. I may be wrong, but Lemmy at the moment supports kbin and lemmy. For example, Mastodon can read Lemmy, but Lemmy cannot read Mastodon. This is just a limitation of the way the app is programmed, even though the ActivityPub backend can communicate.
If only he didn't try to undo the results of the 2020 election, then maybe nobody would be investigating him for trying to overturn the 2020 election. Really makes you think.. if it can happen to him, it can happen to one of us who tries to overturn an election. And what kind of a world would that be?
I thought this was going to go a very different direction. Mushrooms are good though, in both contexts. I also used to hate them as a kid but my parents would always eat them. Over time I learned to love them and now I always have mushrooms on hand. They go with every meal.
The other type is also good to have on hand, but does not go as well with meals in my opinion.
Used to work with a guy who would put 3 second sleeps after every line in our Jenkins file. He would then say how he's so busy because he has no time when he's always waiting for builds to run.

People like this legitimately have cleptomania, they don't care about making more money so much as they just enjoy stealing.
