great that there's a Twitch rival trying to get serious

Kick is not it though.
Their mothership Stake is crypto gambling casino and it's shady as fuck

Ah, so just like any other F1 sponsor then. Honestly can't wait to see them suddenly disappear without actually playing those sponsorship deals because it was a money laundering scheme 🤣
