Toast wishes that fans only watch his content because they enjoy it
Toast also gave his views on how fans should support him. According to him, they should watch his content because it provides them enjoyment, and not because of their likeness towards him. Along with that, he also asked his stans to do something else other than follow his every move, and only support him through his content.
“What would make me happy is if you lived your life, watch my content because you enjoy it. Be successful in school, find a boyfriend, find a girlfriend, find whatever. Have a successful career and just use content creators as a healthy source of entertainment.”

It could be difficult for a streamer like him to decrease a bit of his fan’s support. But Toast and many other streamers believe that it’s difficult for them to keep their private and professional life separate because of stans keeping tabs on them all the time. If stans only supported the content, creators can keep a healthy relationship with them, and provide them with the best possible entertainment.
