I'd be happy for it to go back to colour for everyone, not just mods. The italics are just blah. I regularly use /me on Nightbot announcements for my streamers too and italics doesn't pop nearly as much as colour.

this change sucks, they should've just made it mod / streamer only coloured messages.

Please at least give us the option to choose what we want in our own streams. Having bots use coloured text make that chat much more clear and easy to read, and also rainbow raids are fun!

Literally nobody likes /me doing italics. In every chat I've been in, everyone who's commented on it has said they hate it. The only thing Twitch has accomplished with this is to take away something that was fun and playful, and replace it with something that is very difficult to read for long messages. IMO it should be restored for everyone.

I think people are more mad at the fact Twitch pulled the rug from under us with this change with no options to go back.

I find the italics much more pleasant to read for my eyes. Especially when /me is supposed to be used as to describe an action.

The colors are still VERY GOOD and very much had it's place in chat and should NOT have been removed.

Twitch should have given use options, either the viewer and choose if they want to see /me be italics or color

or even give Broadcasters the choice to determine which rolls can use a /me for a color, so maybe you just want mods to use /me for color and have users be italics

Could even split it between two commands /me for italics and /color, /announce...ect... for well color.

Twitch can make make a system that works for everyone here and would allow streamers to better tailor the chat experience they want for their streams and for users to choose which one would be easier for them to read. (Yes some people like myself prefer to read with italics over the colors)

Anyways cheers, long comment is long and I hope Twitch fixes this situation sooner then later.

If someone is fooled by a /me colored donation, they will be fooled by /me italicized donation anyways. Bring back the color!

Livid.

Give the streamer the ability to turn on and off /me if it that much confusing to certain audiences and streamers.

I agree, do not change /me from colored text which stands out to black italics which isn't accessible!

Who asked for the change to italics???

The new /me is ****. Please change it back. No one asked to change it.

I find the italic text harder to read then the coloured text, and I have decent vision and no reading difficulties. Plus the coloured text made raids more colourful and exciting. If a streamer wants to not have their audience using colour text they can have it in their rules.

Color text is more fun plus it's easier to differentiate for bots

No one asked for this change. Please revert it. Makes no sense.

anyone who's spent more than an hour on twitch has seen the "/me has donated $dollars!" troll messages. even newbie streamers rarely fall for it, and if so, only once.

meantime, millions of people use it to decorate streamer chats with raid and other messages to show support.

this seems like using a hammer to kill an ant.

Italic text is an accessibility barrier to people with dyslexia. Please do not force this change on every user. This is rather appalling that this was a suggestion of 9 people when the Trans tag has thousands of upvotes. Please listen to your users and do your part.

There was literally no point to this change. The coloured /me was so much better, didn't hurt my eyes and actually helps it stand out better. I haven't seen anyone abuse the command, except for new members to Twitch who think they can fool someone with a fake /me donation message. But even then, nobody really fell for it. Please change it back.
