  1. Both the default and minimized version of the first chat highlight feature is quite distracting from a moderator's point of view. In a fast paced chat (5k average viewers), the pink frame around the message distracts us from seeing the immediate couple of message above and below the highlighted message, making us sometimes miss things not allowed by chat rules.

    I understand that from a streamer's point of view, this is a neat feature for new viewer engagement, however, as a moderator, it would be great if we could get the option to use the "old" compact first chat message…

  2. When people are gifting large numbers of subs to a streamer (especially when multiple viewers do so back to back), the notifications break the flow of any conversations happening, which effectively makes chat temporarily unusable.

    I don't want to not have a notification for this, because I do appreciate people who gift to my favourite streamers and want their generosity to be recognised, but it would be nice if the notifications could be delivered in a way that doesn't spam the chat. To that end, I'd like to suggest that when multiple subs are being gifted in one go, the…

  3. An option to be able to remove the text highlight when people @ mention your channel in your chat as it can be distracting for the streamer. If this is already available can someone please tell me how to do it, as I haven't been able to find the option anywhere

  4. If a hype train is going or the streamer runs a poll, there is a notification window on top of the chat, which blocks some of the chat.

    I'd appreciate an option to dismiss this notification pop up (x).

  5. The "Returning Chatter" feature highlights the chat for people who have typed in chat at least twice in the last 30 days, this is a good feature but at the moment it appears to highlight all of their messages, could we get it so it only highlights their first message that stream?

  7. Allow to adjust the font size of the chat on IOS, or at least use a dynamic font to be able to adjust this in the phone settings.

  8. Having any more than a couple emotes causes my chat box to lag horribly with the new chat options. It would be nice to have a toggle in the options somewhere to turn off having embedded pictures in the chat box.

  9. So far, the chat "delay" value is only readable from the API by the broadcaster.
    I think that misses the point of having this value accessible.

    To me, the point of this value is to be able to honnor the delay for chat client developpers (chatty, chatterino, ...)
    But that fact that it's only accessible by the broadcaster makes it quite useless. The only point I see in its current state is the abaility to display it at some point.

    In an ideal world this delay would simply be handled server-side instead of client-side as it is right now, but…

  10. I want the channel owner to be able to upload pictures. Without cutting down on the resolution in the chat And viewers in the chat can open the full size image to watch.

    Because I noticed that When the channel owner creates the content by traveling to different places when encountering something interesting or a beautiful view will be able to take pictures and send them to viewers via chat for real-time interaction

    All images may be deleted after the end of the live. Or only those who subscribe will be able to access the images.

    In order to prevent…

  11. The ability to hide the Mod Badge/ Sword from view.

    This is especially important for communities that are on the smaller side where new viewers may be intimidated by the amount of mods with their badge chatting.

    It also allows certain moderators to mod anonymously.

  12. Instead of Followers Only mode, you should add a mode where trusted accounts (accounts that have existed for a long time and are in good standings with twitch) are the only accounts allowed to chat. That way trolls will be filtered out, and good upstanding Twitch citizens can chat to see if they like the stream before they follow.

    You're welcome. Stream fixed.

  13. Voisitteko poistaa LUL emoten twitch palvelusta, sillä se uhkaa minun mielenterveyttäni, sillä joka kerta kun nään kyseisen LUL emoten minun järkeni hupenee ja kohta olen mielenterveyteni ansiosta sairaalassa. Joten kiitos mikäli mahdollista voisitte poistaa ja kieltää sen jakamisen twitchin alustalla. kiitos!

  14. Have the ability to send bits to fellow chatters in the same stream. A type of high5. There are times in chat where a viewer/chatter helps, and is deserving, and there is no way to show recognition, cheer or donate to them.

  15. Add RTF chat support for Broadcasters, Bots, and Mods while stripping <script>, <img>, etc. tags. (that way we can actually format command messages such as our rules, or raid messages. Honestly you could just take off the word-break style for those users.)

    Even a quiet roll of "Hey, you wanna write your own html? Go for it."

  16. Provavelmente a twitch consegue várias informações por meio das mensagens do chat, imaginem a quantidade de informações dos usuários que são perdidas ao apagar as mensagens. A ideia é que, quando o usuário apagar a mensagem que estava sendo digitada no chat a envie para o banco de dados para usar essa informação.
    Um exemplo: O streamer está falando sobre depressão, o usuário até digita uma mensagem sobre algo que está acontecendo com o mesmo, porém exita e apaga a mensagem... Creio que dê para aproveitar essas mensagens apagadas.

  17. Aggiungere un comando (es. announcemod) solo per i moderatori in modo da mandare messaggi in chat tra noi moderatori e streamer senza che il resto della chat lo veda per esempio per fare un annuncio ai mod per non passare da mezzi esterni.

  18. You should also be able to see when in the VOD the chat was sent, and what the chat says. You shouldn't have to skip through entire VODs to see what the chat says. There should be a list that contains every single chat message you've ever received, and it should be accessible in the analytics.

  19. How about a chat verification "only humans" that activates a captcha to stop bot spamming?

  20. It's not an idea, it's more of a problem. For some reason, my chat keeps "pausing due to scroll" even when I'm not touching the mouse. What gives?
