What do you actually have in mind? Are you using the word "influencer" in some narrow way? Every streamer influences their viewers so my reading of your comment is that you are asking for a streaming service that doesn't allow streaming. Obviously you don't mean that, so I'm curious what do you mean.

Influencer, to me, is a very specific type of streamer. Oh, young whippersnapper, early on twitch was more focused on esports. That's not to say there wasn't variety streamers that had a following based mostly on their personality's. That was growing along side esports except youtube was had dominated that content with lets plays and pewdiepie. For a long time LoL tournaments were the number one draw. There were others, too, and you could find and join those communities pretty easily.

Please, don't go off on how those things still exist. I'm not blind. It's just it's the whole platform is not geared toward that kind of content anymore.
