Absolutely need this just as a normal viewer who has to f5 because chat lost connection and can't reconnect. Since Twitch already logs and stores chat for vods this whould be doable.

Why don't you preload the chat for the last couple of minutes? So we can understand what the streamer is talking about once we travel between channels. Having an empty chat doesn't help at all

i am completely agree with you but it should not only for mods it'll for everyone like me when i convinced any client for https://moonstonering.shop/ selling my product i didn't remain what the last offer i have given to him therefor it should be recent chat history for everyone.

Если сидеть на стриме и обновить его, то все записи в чате стираются. Надо с этим что-то делать. У всех бывают неполадки с интернетом - как у зрителей, так и у стримеров. Давайте сделаем всем хорошо :) Всем добра

I completely agree with this. As a mod for multiple channels ( some with only me as a mod at times and me only using mobile atm) would be cool to be able to at least have chat logs available like you can on PC

I agree with @TETYYS, I think this suggestion is now implemented/completed - or at least to some degree?

Chatterino does this. I can go back a year or more (If you turn logging on)

Better yet, just show all of chat like a certain other now defunct streaming service used to do.

This seems to be implemented as of some time ago

Sometimes page goes bad, reload is needed. But as streamer you want also look back and pick up the conversation. So reload page with like 10 last lines as possible above, that will help a lot. Empty chat is not good.
Weird enough, if i replay part of stream, chat will show up. Why not with reload page?

@TormentDubz It being built into the website is just much more convenient/cleaner though.

Use the program Chatterino - it gives up to 24 hours of chat history (maximum of 800 lines) and is available to mods and non-mods

Yes please! Even as a "normal" user, I want to see what the conversation is before jumping in.

Yes please moving to twitch from mixer I miss the chat not disappearing.

It would be great to have it for everyone, but it's very necessary for mods

+1 for everyone. Persistent chat allows you to jump right into the existing conversation.

Agreed - for everyone on every channel please

I agree!

Second. But not just for mods, for everyone.
