• Let's start with the basics: to start creating a stream on Twitch, you’ll need a Twitch account.  The developers recommend having the app installed on your mobile device to adjust your streaming settings on the fly, with Stream Manager.
• After you have created your unique nickname, you’ll start customizing your channel. Sony hasn’t forgotten anything and has created an entire Creator Camp page of its Branding, so you can modify your photo, bio and everything you need: it’s time to show the world who you are!

• With the integration of Twitch in the console, you can configure the options of Moderation and Security. PS5 also advises integrating AutoMod to prevent malicious comments, but you can also update your settings to include a custom list of words or phrases that will be automatically filtered from your channel.
