I don't think my initial statement is misleading at all. More viewers does not equate to 'extra money', in no way at all.
'Chat engagement /current viewers /average viewer count' - none of these parameters mean we get a better percentage.
I review many products at the drop of a hat on stream as soon as they drop. I have given many positive and negative reviews on an array of products. I've watched a few more streamers tonight and I'm glad my opinion has been backed up by the issues they have been having. There is no way a program should require users to go through such an effort to get it working. Still even hours later, I don't get what this product has been designed for.
As for affecting someone else's way of earning a living - I owe it to my community to be honest and open about my feeling towards a product both positive and/or negative. I want my showcase to be a reason as to whether people choose to or not choose to purchase a product. Probably my showcase would turn people away from buying the product, because I personally don't think it offers enough value for £25. But, again it is subjective and I will always make my true feelings known to my community.
That being said I have given negative reviews before on things and gone on to love a product in the future once issues have been fixed. So hopefully that can happen at some point.
