Fix the constant disconnecting of chat.
Getting a constant "Welcome to the chat room" message and not being able to interact with my chat as well as any other streamers is getting old. This issue has been around for 7 years at the least. It should be fixed by now

About a month or so ago, this became a more regular problem for me. I started having to have Chatty open at the same time to make sure to not miss any messages (for modding). Strangely, Chatty never loses the connection, just the Twitch web client.

Still happening both on linux & mac, across firefox, safari and chromium... Really annoying to have to refresh every minute when modding or streaming to see if I missed anything...

Same issue, started this week (Tuesday/Monday?) I do not use a VPN, have done everything I know to do. Restarted system, restarted router/modem, cleared catches etc.. logged in out on devices for twitch, still occurring every x seconds it seems. This is happening in my OBS as well as the stream manager, so idk but it's SUPER annoying!

I am getting this on both Edge, Firefox, and OBS chat. FIX THIS! It started a couple days ago and I have been with my IP to try and diagnose the problem and we have ben through everything including if there is anything down along the nodes somewhere. So far, all come up fine. This is on your end!

11 years with twitch and I just start getting this issue and it is nonnnn stop every 20 seconds to minute. "Welcome to the chat room" Please do better. Bug randomly hitting people and threads going back for nearly 10 years... There is no way I would have a job in that department anymore for letting a bug go on for that long that really impacts communication with streamers. 90% of the time you don't even know if they received the message and you look like a idiot sending back to back messages.

@DemonCeelin For me it was a background NordVPN process that was active even after I had closed NordVPN. You could check the Details tab under the Task Manager.

Started having this issue this week. Nothing has changed about my computer or network setup and I am NOT using Nord or any other VPN while streaming. I was not having the problem before Tuesday but now it is constant. I'm certain it's not my ISP as my D/L is 350Mbps and my U/L is 12Mbps.

My brother and I have both been having this issue across multiple computers, browsers and the mobile app, tried all the usual stuff but still consistently getting the issue across all of them. The only way we can stay connected to any chat is to use the twitch mobile app, disconnect from the wifi and use mobile data

For me, it only happens on my PC (Firefox with Surfshark via wireguard). It never happens on my iPhone, iPad or Android TV (no VPN).

same problem here, when I am logged, after fullscreen I recieve "Welcome to the chat room!" and cannot see any messages. When I was not logged It worked perfectly.
This started to happened few days ago. -

this has nothing to do with anyones ISP if you think that you're delusional.
we have two computers here and I disconnect every time I go to fullscreen, my roommate doesn't. obvsly we have the very same ISP.
I cannot fathom what stupid nonsense people type -

I deactivated my Thread Protection from NordVPN and worked properly.

Okay seriously, this is weird. I unplugged bot the router AND the modem once cause my friend told me it was the ISP and that helped, once. I've tried it again and it's not working. I dunno what's going on, but it's a fix that needs to happen sooner than later. Tired of missing out on chats.

Definitely NOT an ISP issue. I get this issue on my main computer, but not my laptop --- with both connected to the same twitch stream at the same time. (Watching a stream on my main desktop (hardwired) computer, got tired of the constant spam, so fired up the same stream on laptop -- no welcome spam there. Been happening on and off for a while now, usually only bothers me when I'm streaming, as I'm worried I miss viewer's chat.
