For some reason i want to stream games on a platform such as Twitch, but im pretty scared to start and what people may think of me, and what if my device isint good enough?

I'm not even sure if I should start with Twitch or not?

Anyone got any advice on getting over my silly fears or something?

You need one of two things, either an incredibly interesting personality with a magnetism that draws people in, or you need to be hot. Otherwise yeah, probably gonna peak around 10 viewers or so. The algorithms of all the platforms, not just Twitch seem to be setup so building a new following is almost impossible
