TwitchDropsMiner is a desktop application that automates earning timed Twitch Drops by simulating “watch” activity without actually streaming video, letting users collect rewards while saving bandwidth and attention. It works by periodically fetching stream metadata to advance Drops progress, while maintaining a websocket connection to monitor which channels are online, offline, or changing status. The app is designed to reduce manual babysitting by switching channels automatically when a stream goes offline or when a higher-priority opportunity becomes available. It supports prioritisation logic, including game priority and exclusion lists, so users can focus on specific campaigns and avoid unwanted categories. The tool also discovers new drop campaigns based on linked accounts and validates streams using tags and campaign checks to avoid wasting time watching streams that cannot earn rewards.
