  2. 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.

  3. A lot of times if someone raids in and a lot of chat activity goes on during stream, it is hard for the broadcaster to read or see the person who raided in their chat messages. My idea is to spotlight the raider if they are being shouted out with the "/shoutout" command for a minute or so.

  4. 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…

  7. I like the daily weekly and all time cheer and gift sub options
    BUT PLEASE CAN YOU LET US EDIT THEM? I want to remove some
    names from the list, example they dont follow no more, they dont
    come on twitch no more or dont visit/support the streamer. Some
    times I see missing names cause they changed names or deleted twitch.
    Can I please remove the people I want too? can then put whoever is legit
    next on the list, so ya can have the people who still come/support/visit
    be on the all time cheer list?

  8. The sending of spam messages via whisper has become a serious problem on Twitch in Portuguese, in view of this, I suggest the creation of a filter that retains suspicious spam messages in some other box.

    Generally the messages follow the same writing pattern with spammers asking for a donation of money to their bank accounts under the guise of experiencing financial hardship, so I believe a simple AI should be able to retain most of the unwanted messages.

    An option to block specific terms in the spam filter would also be welcome.

  9. At the moment, only the default "/announce" chat command works with IRC (chatbots etc) - "/announceblue", "/announcegreen", "/announceorange", and "/announcepurple" all fail to send messages.

  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. In the Chat, the User selects dual line language learner:

    Mode 1:
    1) Under each chat word of the unknown language sentence, post the translated word of the user language. This quickly aids new word learning of a different language but in the same order as the words in the sentence…Later on, one can add a line for the tense and part of speech of each word. Or flip through all three using this same second line.

    Mode 2
    Translate the chat sentence … this doesn’t necessarily show what each word means nor is organized in the same word order…

  14. 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.

  17. What happens is that when on mobile, while writing in the embeded chat, if you press the send button from the virtual keyboard the last word doesnt send in the message.

    This only happens when you hit the send button from the keyboard, if you exit the virtual keyboard and hit the send button in the UI it doesnt happen.

  18. We have one for those who have audio off, one for those who have video off... But what about the lurkers? Some people might be sleeping (or preparing to) and still watch through it. Other people might be unable to chat, but be watching and listening.

    Also add a quick way to set them on/off similar to how we can change the sub badge and the like.

  19. Blocked users should be hidden when others reply to the blocked user.

    Instead of the chat showing "User reply to user2", it should be "User reply to blocked" or "User reply to blocked (click to show)"

    As this would be more beneficial to the user who doesn't want to see the other user who is blocked from showing in chat completely.

  20. It's a big problem for djs to be recognized if the account name doesn't contain DJ, like for example djblabla. If djs are using a normal name like peterparker, the other users can't identify them as content creators. On the other side, there is viewers, not active djs on twitch, using nicknames with dj in name. It's impossible to call up and support the content creaters, give shoutouts for owner and mods.

    Make it like this: Twitch detects someone is streaming every x days for y hrs in category music. Twitch gives a notification to this user to register as…
