  1. I would like to have the ability to enable an option where new viewers to a stream can see previous messages posted in chat. There are times when viewers may come into a chat, but have no context, with what the streamer is discussing as they are unable to see previous messages in chat. There are also times where regular viewers may have to temporarily leave the stream, but then when they return only a little bit later, they are unable to see what was previously posted in chat. I know other streaming services, such as YouTube and Mixer, by…

  3. Depois de raids eu vou para o chat de outra live, até aí tudo bem. Mas então quando falo no chat, a minha mensagem só aparece para mim, não aparece pro streamer e nem pros viewers dele. Se puderem fazer alguma coisa sobre isso, eu agradeço.

  4. Hi !!!

    It might be interesting to choose the badge you want from the following lists :
    - https://assets.help.twitch.tv/article/img/659115-01u.png
    - https://assets.help.twitch.tv/article/img/659115-02u.png
    And sub progression (can choose the first icon month (and precise that the person is sub since 2month in ''()'')).

    Example : Choose the color of our favorite sub gifter badge can be great.

    I hope this is going to come soon.

  5. The list of users in chat has those big categories with an icon next to them now. However, the category under which the Broadcaster is listed is called "Streamer", while his badge and most other texts call him "Broadcaster". I'd be happy if that gets renamed accordingly.

  6. If we fast forward the video then chat history should be retained i.e. from beginning of the video till the forwarded time.

  7. ID display in chat window is unnecessary. Just showing your nickname is enough. (For non-admins) (add setting)
    채팅창에 아이디 표시는 불필요합니다. 닉네임만 보여줘도 충분합니다. (관리자가 아닌 사람들에게는요) (설정 추가)

  11. When there are less than 10 viewers, I hope the viewer can turn on the microphone. So, if viewers want, I hope we can communicate with each other through a microphone rather than chatting.

  12. Currently, moderator status is unreliable. This idea is to have a reliable way to know if I am a moderator¹.

    Please provide a reliable message of changes to moderator status ASAP to the affected user. Something along the lines of the standard IRC MODE message—but that isn't affected by the MODE spam tmi tended to generate.

    Additionally, have a short grace period (i.e., when excess messages are discarded without resulting in a ban) after moderator status is revoked to account for latency in receiving the updated status.

    1. Bots currently have no reliable way to know if they are moderators (except…

  13. When a chatter is being "watched" by mods.. dim their chat for the streamer. Perhaps also highlight chat for other mods?

  14. People in chat should be able to upvote chat messages so streamers can connect more with their viewers.
    People watching streams often share similar view on gameplay etc.

    For example: The streamer clutches a 1v4 situation but ends up dying of fall damage or poison or whatever :P its just an example here!
    But then someone in chat types "You missed a healthpack behind that tree" The message gets upvoted and the streamer see's the message and replies "Oh i didnt notice it, thanks i will remember that"

    Example: You cannot upvote your own messages because that would just be…

  15. Current status on ultrawide screen (27'' 21:9)

    2 empty bars embrace the video, and then a tiny chat is displayed

    Allow us to resize the chat width.

  17. When on a computer, you must type the beginning of the username instead of it searching for partial username as it does on mobile (e.g., dj_name - must type @dj instead of @name).

  18. Would be cool a chat group together the normal chat like had a tool or a simple option that could find friends or new peoples to meet

    Being this option you enter another chat but in the same stream and with people who can now be your friends

    Ex:
    Normal chat -> click a button -> chatgroup( the same stream )

    If could draw the idea would be better but i think it be enough

  19. I know this was a feature previously and I'm still not sure why it was removed with an update. I feel that having multiple chat rooms per channel is extremely useful, particularly for streamers with larger bases. Multiple rooms allow subs, mods, etc. to have their own space to communicate in. This can potentially incentivize some viewers to subscribe and allow mods to communicate without having to use another app such as Discord or Slack regarding real-time issues.

  20. Seria legal se tivesse um distintivo de moderador baseado em voto de streamers. Por exemplo, alguém que é moderador em vários canais e ajuda ativamente esses canais, ser indicado por cada streamer pra ter um distintivo oficial da twitch!
