[Test] Crowd Chant
Some communities will notice a new way to "chant" during hype moments on stream. This is a limited time experiment where only some creators will have access to this feature. Creators and Mods will be able to use /chant (using text and/or emotes) in chat to kick one off. Viewers will see a private callout with the chant and can dismiss or choose to participate!
We'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions here. We look forward to hearing your feedback!

On 2/2, we will turn off Chants.
While this feature was popular, we observed negative impacts to minutes watched for significant groups of creators.
Experiments help us test new ideas in real time, and decide what to build next. Thanks for sharing your feedback with us!

Please bring back chants in some way! Perhaps a solution for lost minutes watched is to allow users to mute chanted messages. Just a toggle that minimizes the chanted messages. Or just hides them altogether? Either way, please. It was such a fun feature.

Would love to see this feature added again. Loved seeing it on other streams and as a streamer and moderator myself, think it would be a great way to get chat more interactive! Perhaps have it so creators can turn off the feature if they don't want to use it!

I don't understand why you would turn it off for everybody... our community loves this feature... just make it so every channel can turn it on or off but don't take it away from streamers who use this frquently...

I believe this is a bad decision as our community loves the chant feature, and I have noticed first hand that it brings out many lurkers and encourages many new first time chatters to participate. At least make it an opt-in feature rather than just removing it entirely, as I completely disagree with the assumption that it reduces viewership

I don't understand how you know the drop in viewership can be attributed directly to the chant feature and not something else. Correlation is not causation. I know a ton of people who love the chant feature. How do you know this decision won't cause a loss of viewership for some of the channels who utilized it well?

Really disappointed in this news. Many creators I know were looking forward to chants in their channels. I know many viewers who have asked when they would be able to chant in creators channels. It made for great interactive point redeems as well. Hope this feature can be brought back as an opt-in or other.

How much does this feature cost you? And how much you'll disappoint communities by removing it?
