    Day9 on having the first 100-month sub on Twitch: "What we never anticipated is that those early subscribers would stick around for years."

    If you've consumed content on Twitch for any amount of time you've likely heard a variation of the following phrase: "Hey ChocolateTurtle, thanks for the subscription!" For some of the largest streamers on the platform, they will utter a similar sentence hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of times per month with a small number counter on their screen visible for both viewers and themselves. For those unaware, viewers can "subscribe" to a Twitch channel to support a content creator they enjoy which, for a base price of $4.99 per month, can unlock perks for the subscriber as well. If an individual subscribes to a channel for consecutive months, they "resub" to the channel and it can show a creator that the content consumer enjoys what they're doing enough to support them more than just one time.
