Let chants be optional instead of removing them
I know Twitch says the feature seemed to cause a decrease in viewership during their testing, but there are so many other factors that can affect that and many streamers who got to try out the chant feature really enjoyed it. I think it’d be better to make it an optional feature rather than remove it entirely, and let people decide on their own if it works for their channel.

Let streamers decide what WE want in our OWN communities! Twitch literally can't exist without the streamers, but never listens to what we want.

I didn't even get to see this in action anywhere. I feel like this feature had too small of a sample size for testing. Would love to see more of it.

How hard is it to keep the features people clearly want?

Chants are a massive part of the music community, and taking this away is ABSOLUTELY a detriment. Make it optional, and that way content creators can CHOOSE what kind of content they are creating.

Chants are fun! Just make an option to turn them on or off. No need to completely remove the feature.

Make chants optional for everyone! Many of my friends are *STILL* waiting for this feature!! Don't take it away from us, specially when most of us still didn't even have a chance to use it!

Chants have been a big part of my channel and my community enjoys being a part of motivational or positive messages with a click of a button. It also helps create conversations for those who are shy or they're unsure how to join in the topic. Lurkers enjoy chants to still show their presence with the stream. Without chants the involvement of the chat will decrease. I believe we should have the option because chants have never been a negative experience with my time as a streamer and viewer in other channels. When celebrations or birthdays occur in the channel we use chants to highlight these things.

As a mod, I honestly feel like you should give the streamer the choice to opt in our out of it... it's a great feature and feel like it would improve the chat in many ways when it comes to the chat having fun as a community!

Make it an option! This is very silly to take away a great feature. Let's just make it an option for the streamer

PLEASE allow streamers to opt-in to the chant feature!! If viewers are leaving my stream because of the occasional /chant Clap, I'm absolutely fine with that. I don't want those viewers. I want people who like what we like, and WE LIKE FUN CHANTS:)
I assume this is a profitability-based decision - I would pay ten bucks a month for the chant feature EASY. Multiply that by the thousands of creators who would do the same and...?

Chants have been great for my channel - my mods activate them at excellent times, and use them for !play for Marbles on stream and stuff. Will be sad to see them go!

As a mod in a few front-page music streamers channels. We love the chants; it makes the streams way more engaging and fun. I think it should be turned into an option, not disabled permanently.

I love chants!! I wish more of my favorite streamers had it!! it always brings me back into the stream and makes me want to play attention so that I can know what we are chanting about.

Chants should be an optional feature that streamers can choose to have. In many of the streams i'm in they are loads of chaotic fun and I love them.

Chants should be optional to a streamer. They allow for more chat interaction and let me interact in a way that I wouldn't otherwise. It is so much fun when I get to chant with the chat and it makes the chant feature makes it much more convenient.
