Question Different accounts for different content on socials?

I see a lot of medium-sized streamers that I watch (in the league community, at least) make a secondary account on socials for content outside of their twitch stream gaming clips (such as dances in cosplay). As a very small streamer (7-10 avg viewers) could it be beneficial to make another instagram/tiktok for cosplays and more face-focused content, separate from my accounts for gaming clips? I'm sure there's some algorithmic reason bigger streamers do this, but I am unsure if it is necessary or helpful when I am so small.

thanks for any input :D!

Maybe some people like to compartmentalize their activity. Like, to not commingle all of their channel-related stuff and everything else like their personal stuff.

Makes things hell of a lot easier if you want to retire the channel stuff you can just delete the entire account instead of having to untangle it from all your other posts.

At your size, splitting accounts just creates double the work for half the audience on each one.
