Does anyone know exactly why he seems reluctant to engage with his fanbase online now? He used to be so much more active.

He has built such a huge and lasting fanbase that has stuck with him for 8+ years, and yet he doesn't seem to nurture the brand, the fans, and his online presence the way one would expect from such a popular figure. He could literally do everything to milk that fanbase for all its worth, but yet he doesn't. This is such a stark contrast from popular figures of most sports.

He is easily the biggest dota streamer on twitch, having peak viewership of 25k+ when he streams, yet he only streams 10x a year if the fans are lucky. Despite his long breaks and absence from streamer, his fans always come back and stay subbed, but I feel like he could stream more and even make streaming a big side racket for him to make money. But somehow he doesn't. He is also the most followed pro on twitter yet engages with his followers with only 1 tweet per month if they're lucky.

I think his brand and fanbase are incredibly strong, but his lack of consistent online presence makes it impossible to keep up with him. And I think he is not maximizing the potential of his popularity the way he could.

Does anyone know why Arteezy has become so elusive to his fanbase?

To clarify, I am not demanding that he streams more, but I'm rather more curious on why he is not actively engaging a fanbase that is quite large and offers him great opportunities even beyond Dota.
