  1. Right now people can be distinguished by badges and name color, but allowing users to have different fonts can really help differentiate and provide more of a "personality" for chatters.

    Streamers should be able to ban certain fonts in their streams that they find too hard to read or otherwise don't like.

  2. I have a running gag on my channel, and would love to be able to make a filter that automatically replaces one word with another to go along with the gag. Could also be used to fight spam and hate comdically.

  3. Now there are so many Global badges from watch and subscription drops, an option like the none button that changes your Global badge every message or every 10 minute. for the collectors who want to show off there badges.

  4. Chat was changed in version 31.3.0. The new chat design has a lot of padding around each message. This means you can only see half as many messages at a time compared to before. Please consider reverting this change.

  6. Hello,

    I can't chat because Twitch is asking me to verify my phone number in channels that don't require phone verification.
    My account is over 5 years old and has no enforcement history.

    Please fix the issue asap.

    Best Regards,
    pulivya

  7. I think Twitch should show how many unique viewers are actively participating in chat compared to the total number of viewers.
    A small number of highly active chatters can sometimes make their opinions appear to represent the entire audience. For example, a stream may have 10,000 viewers, while only 200 people are actively chatting. If a small group repeatedly posts the same negative opinion, it can create the impression that “everyone” feels that way, even though most viewers have not expressed any opinion at all.
    This can also influence other viewers, who may assume that the dominant opinion in chat…

  8. How does twitch not currently have a birthday cake emote?

    This shouldn't be something streamers have to individually add to their channels. Everyone has a birthday and it's an event that can be celebrated in chat.

    What a disappointment to find it isn't in there yet. This can be fixed forever in less than 10 minutes.

  9. Add timestamps on mobile chat. They work great on PC, but are not yet available on mobile.

  10. Some of my legit viewers and several streamers I know are leaving the platform to protect the viewers privacy. Allowing streamers to enable temporarily or permanently is perfect, making it mandatory (specially when the streamer has disabled it) is a problem.

    Please revert it.

  11. The idea: vote in chat for a message (mark it) that will be sent to the streamer. If it gets the most votes, it's given to the streamer.

    Sometimes there are good messages, but they go unnoticed due to the game or the streamer being busy, but there's no need to repeat them.

  12. Twitch made it extremely difficult for me to chat anywhere... even my own stream chat where I am the broadcaster... here is the gif as proof https://i.ibb.co/dxvLS9F/twitch-proof.gif . Twitch please allow creators to make their OWN decisions on who they deem needs to have phone verification. It seems weird to make that decision for them when what they had was already working, especially for long time lurkers and chatters like myself.

  13. As the system currently works, messages sharing a user's Watch Streak cannot be deleted by moderators and stay in chat after the user is banned. This allows the feature to be used to force unsavory messages to remain in chat.

  14. It would be nice if we could upload a watermark to Twitch that was applied to our clips. The ability to place it in different locations would be nice as well depending on the clip.

  15. If you are banned in a person's chat and they are doing a shared chat with someone else, you shouldn't be banned from chatting in the other person you aren't banned in's chat! My suggestion is to make it so you can not appear in the person you are banned in's chat at all! not be completely removed from chatting in the other person's chat altogether

  17. Streamer banned me for joking around in chat and laughing nothing serious really and being concerned for their health and the timing was just unlucky after they asked to not talk about the subject but I had just joined the stream after that and there was zero indication for that including their "chat rules" just saying "don't be a d***" when I wasn't even.

  18. Estaría muy bien que arreglaseis el xat de móvil, no funciona nunca, no carga y no puedo ver los mensajes de los demás, con el tiempo siempre acabo xateando yo solo sin ver que es lo que me responde el xat, a ver si lo podéis arreglar ya para la semana que viene, va fatal y debería ser vuestra primera prioridad ¿sabes lo peor de todo? Que este problema le pasa a todos los que usan Twitch desde iphone, el mío el 15 en específico, estaría bien arreglar el problema para los iphone users.

  19. Had a stream streak of 339 and was chatting consistently in chat, but it wouldn't update. It'd be nice to have it restored or at least have a more user controlled way of tracking it instead of relying on the twitch app/browser detection.

    Couple of ways this could be done is either have like a box to check when you click on stream, or maybe it updates when you chat (not preferred due to shy lurkers), or have a "check in" next to where the streak is displayed but doesn't like cause a pop up in stream activity

  20. I propose adding a reporting box in Twitch chat to quickly flag inappropriate behavior. Viewers could select a user, provide a mandatory reason, and send the report directly to moderators. Moderators would have three sanction options: warn, temporary ban, or permanent ban. Reporters would receive a confirmation notification.

    This feature would make chat safer, help moderators act faster, and create a healthier community experience.
