My answer was not detailed enough. Douyu was a live streaming software mainly used to stream games and entertainment activities. On the other hand, a novel was a literary work that expressed the author's thoughts and feelings through words. Therefore, Douyu itself was not a software specifically used to read novels. If you want to read novels, you can choose some specialized novel reading software such as Qidian, Zongheng, and other websites. In addition, the reason why Douyu couldn't read novels these few days might be because Douyu was undergoing some updates and improvements, causing its functions to be unstable or malfunctioning. This is a common situation. If you are dissatisfied with this, you can try to uninstall and reinstall it or contact Douyu customer service to resolve it.
