Become one with the troubleshooting, and do things systematically so you’re always able to work backward and find the source of your problem.

I’ve been streaming for a little while on my own channel, and most of what I’m going to lay out is just the stuff I’ve picked up since I’ve been on Twitch. Second, this isn’t meant to be exhaustive.
