Knowing this actually makes me want to gift less subs.
I do it mainly to support the streamer and give a little back to the community but I think I'd rather donate it directly where they can keep almost 100% of it instead of giving 50% to Twitch.
Bits in my opinion are superior to subs because you keep the badge, you can unlock some emotes and you can dose them better (and regular discounts which subs only have like on Christmas).
I believe that actually subs should be the superior option since sub gift recipients sometimes renew the gift sub and stay in the channel as a viewer and supporter which helps growing the community directly.
