I wonder about that too. I never watch Twitch or livestreams like that at all, but I do sometimes watch uploads of certain parts getting recapped. It's just this moving smear of complete unreadable noise it's so fast and full of emoji spam. But Hasan or whoever the person hosting will still pick out certain comments from it and talk to the person, and I'm like how?? I'm guessing the comments that get chosen must be higher tier subscribers and those show up separately to him or something. But for everyone else, what's the point? Like you said, just to scream into the void? Maybe on some insignificant chance someone else watching will glance at just the right split second to see what you said in chat?
