Which streaming platform you guys prefer to use & why?

Personally I find youtube a lot better than twitch due following reasons :

a) I can rewind video when live.
b) Video buffers a lot more times on twitch than youtube ( my internet connection is good enough to stream 3-4 4K videos on netflix at the same time).
c) YT has a lot better search engine than Twitch & i can't even find anyone on twitch unless I know the exact name of the streamer.
d) UI of youtube is a lot user friendly than twitch.
e) actual 1080p video quality

Edit : Fixed some typos

If I’m on WiFi I prefer twitch
If I’m on data I prefer YouTube

YouTube takes a lot less to run on 1080/1440p then Twitch but the quality of twitch is better imo

twitch has higher bitrate of 7000kb but youtube recommends 5000kb thats why twitch has better quality, but even though i have 300 mbps speed, twitch buffers like hell on my phone, probably the amazon servers arent as good as googles

does twitch show ads in india? maybe that's why twitch buffers cuz there's no dedicated server near the region?

YouTube >>>>>>>>>> Twitch in almost every aspect except that chat looks better on Twitch
(Twitch doesn't buffer for me though)

I'm a big user of rewind feature so maybe that's why

the Audio quality unmatched and the chat cannot get spammy because of it's highly sophisticated chat filtering and more importantly it never crashes in the middle

bro you forgot absolutely no buffer or lag experience & they also don't promote mobile game streamers only unlike other platforms out there.
