Basically if someone chooses a username but doesn’t do anything or have any followers or progress, even if they’re using the account to watch and follow people, you don’t need a specific username to do that, but you do need one to actually make progress and get people to find you more easily and be known by that username. So it makes sense that username should go to someone who actually needs it and is gonna use it to stream and make progress. So there should be an exception where twitch would actually give someone who wants to stream and make progress on twitch a username that’s taken by someone who isn’t actually doing anything with it. And no variations of a username are not always an option, there are people who lack creativity and only want the exact same one so don’t tell me “just move on and deal with it”.
