    This is great even if you have multiple monitors. I stream Rocksmith, which makes my monitor mostly dead space, but I keep it full screen so that its big enough for me to see the notes while I walk around. I interact with chat during the songs, but have to turn my head slightly left to the other monitor to read it. This lets me put chat right where my eyes are already looking at the note highway.

    This is also really useful for dual setup streamers using M1 Macs, since OBS can‘t really use browser sources (in fact it can, depending on if you compiled a version for yourself, but the encoder still doesn‘t kick in for alerts etc.)

    is there any way for a true fullscreen game (not fullscreen borderless) to see twitch chat in 1 monitor? I use a 4k samsung tv as my monitor and if I put my game into fullscreen borderless, the game will follow my native res which is 4k, and my pc can't handle it coz I usually play fullscreen with 1080p. Been a dilemma coz there are several games that can have their own resolutions and keep that option in borderless fullscreen and mostly cannot..

    Hiii! I only have 1 monitor and was wondering why I can't see my camera on my screen when I'm live? I did a test stream and my friend said he can see me just fine, but when I go to play the game I can't see what I look like, it's like my camera isn't there when it is and it's working. Do I need a 2nd monitor to be able to see my camera while I'm playing a game?

    Funny thing is that twitch uses irc for the chat system which means you can use any client.
    On Linux I've been using irssi in a borderless terminal with the background set to 100% transparency with mouse disabled. Been doing this for years now.
    CZcams is a challenge however.

    Okay, let me add something since I may have came off condescending, the comment was intended as a light-hearted jab to people who just "don't want" to use two monitors, despite never trying it; I had no intention of condescending upon those who cannot obtain or have the space for a second monitor.
