I think serious cheaters are using secondary devices to cheat now. Like getting DMA card and paying a cheat provider. It's really crazy the lengths cheaters will go to. At that point it seems what is fun for them is more finding exploits and seeing how long they can go undetected like the very twisted version of modifying cars with how expensive it is.

There's also those in for the profit (winning competitions) and a fair amount of attention seeking on Twitch because a lot think better score = more viewers.

Better score is more viewers, of course.

Did you try watching a silver stream? It's unbearable.
