Understanding Twitch Data Usage - dobag - 08-14-2025
Hi everyone,
I’m trying to figure out my internet usage while streaming and watching live content. Can someone help me understand how much MBs Twitch use per hour, depending on video quality? I mostly watch in 720p and occasionally 1080p.
I’m curious if Twitch consumes more data than other streaming platforms like YouTube or Netflix. Also, does enabling or disabling chat, emotes, or stream alerts affect data usage significantly?
Any tips for monitoring or limiting Twitch’s data consumption would be really helpful.

I’ve always found it interesting how Twitch streams adjust based on internet speed, and learning about data usage really helps manage watching sessions. Having clarity on how much data gets consumed per hour makes it easier to plan streaming without stressing about limits.smm service
