I'm not a Vtuber, but a Virtual Reality streamer who struggles with discovery of other VR streamers among all the vtubers using other tags. You definitely deserve your own home to share your content, with the double advantage of not sharing with VR streamers elsewhere.

An additional point to note that there is a tag for "VR", but it's used predominantly by vtubers. The definition of the tag suggests "for streams that feature gameplay utilizing virtual reality hardware". It's not ideal and in no way replaces the requirement for a category, but I wonder if Twitch is not seeing the demand to elevate this tag with a category because
a) it's not well used
b) it's being used incorrectly.
In lieu of Twitch adopting the suggestion for a Virtual Reality category in the interim I suggest a pro-active approach as follows:
Ensure that when you are streaming, check the VR tag is applied, and re-apply it if Twitch drops it partway through your stream.
Encourage VR game devs to have their VR game listed (e.g. cyubeVR, which is currently listed) and for them to lend their voice to having the VR tag highlighted.
VR users should also rally behind v-tubers getting their own tags and/or categories to ensure segregation of the two communities, which at the moment is a cause of confusion and reduction in the accessibility for both communities.
