Greetings! My name is Franz. I'm a Twitch broadcaster and former creator of YouTube content focused primarily on video games but also encompassing travel, culture, cuisine, tea, history, melee weapons and firearms. I derive great joy from both the production process and the discourse with my viewers, but my limited finances have brought my minimally-profitable endeavors as a content creator into conflict with my paying job, which now struggles to meet basic expenses. Moreover, YouTube's policy changes in recent years have made it an increasingly hostile and oppressive place to host my content, and the constant demonetization, censorship and fraudulent copyright claims I face on that platform have driven my focus primarily to streaming on Twitch.



Your support, even at the most modest level, helps to free me from the nine-to-five rat race and enables me to devote more time, energy and resources to doing what I truly enjoy: sharing in my various interests and passions with my audience through the content I create. It is my solemn promise that under no circumstances will any of my streams or videos ever be hidden behind paywalls or limited access; they are and always will be unconditionally available to everyone, patron or not. Although I lack the means to offer additional rewards for higher levels of contribution, all patrons who use Discord are cordially invited to join my server by linking their accounts with Patreon (details here: https://patreon.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/212052266 ). Your patronage on any level is a reward for my efforts, and an incentive for me to continually strive for personal and professional improvement. Thank you sincerely for your consideration.
