Improve warning when typing in live chat while rewinding the stream
As per current implementation, when rewinding the stream Twitch Chat have a pop up warning saying: "Chat is live" over the chat box.
This is very appreciated, but also confusing wording, as it could be interpreted as follows:
"You have not been disconnected from chat, everything is in order"
A more elaborate warning like "Chat is currently ahead and matching live" would make it clearer that the chatter is currently replying to others in the "future".
I would like to believe that very few chatters actually want to reply to footage happening in the past. A pop-up stopping them from doing so accidentally would be appreciated by many.
Specifically, I am thinking of a dialogue pop-up on sending a message that is similar to:
"You are currently sending a message to a chat that is ahead." and then be present the chatter with the option to send the message anyway or to return to the chat box with the text in it.
The option to "Do not show again" could also be presented.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
