  2. When watching a stream, and people keep giving out gift subs, the chat window keeps opening and shrinking the actual video I am watching. Either allow us to turn off gift subscription notifications or let us turn off chat entirely. Otherwise, I will stop subscribing and just watch on YouTube later.

  3. A separate chat box that catches @ messages to that specific user, i'm in a chat that move fast at time and i miss a few messages that people have @ me in so i thing a separate box at the bottom to show your own @s from other people would be great.

  4. When many messages are being sent at the same time in the chat, you can't really scroll up to look at an emote name for example. The chat auto-locks back to the bottom, no matter how hard you scroll up. A feature to disable that auto-relock would be great I think, so we can scroll up manually, then we can go back to the bottom with the already existing button.

  6. So as a mainly RP watcher. You can quickly see people who jump from stream to stream and be so toxic to the streamers. Not only does this affect the streamers but ultimately everyone. My idea is this

    • Have a streamers eyes only chat mode

    Right now we have subs only and bans etc. But it doesn't really help people will go on and on about it and fuel it. If only the streamer could see it it would eliminate chat to chat Arguments. And be less toxic. Just a idea but I think it would work wonders. Thanks

  7. Twitch chat in popular channels is more about reactions than it is about actual chat. Unfortunately - as fun as chat spam can be - it makes moderation difficult and completely destroys any semblance of discussion that the streamer or chatters may want to have. r9k mode was an answer but, unfortunately, breaks down the way certain chat bots work and ruins, rather than facilitates, certain forms of chat that streamers may want.

    I propose that streamers be given the option to enable a customizable "popular messages" feature for their chat. Such a feature would catch any message spam and…

  8. I believe with the relevance of mobile platforms overtaking the web, emojis should also be allowed on Twitch with emote only mode allowed.

    Emojis are emotes, too!

  10. Right now, the emote menu gets super bloated if you've subscribed to or interacted with a bunch of different channels over time. It would be awesome if we had a way to manually hide or toggle off emotes from specific creators—especially channels you don't watch anymore, no longer stream, or aren't on good terms with. It takes way too long to hunt through a cluttered picker to find the emotes you actually want to use.

  11. I propose an intermediate moderation tool between a total text mute (/timeout) and a ban: restricting a problematic user to posting ONLY emojis and emotes for a specified duration.

    Why it benefits Twitch and Creators (Key Benefits):

    ~ Higher Viewer Retention: Instead of forcing a user to log out because they can't chat, they remain active on the platform. The streamer retains the viewer count.

    ~ Toxicity Neutralization: Removing text entry strips the user of their ability to structure insults, malicious links, text spam, or complex hate speech. Emotes and emojis alone cannot articulate detailed verbal harassment.

    ~ Zero-Friction Workflow…

  12. Ever thought about integrating real-world rewards into Twitch stream chat experiences? For instance, during milestone streams or community-focused events, could viewers unlock perks tied to their local area like event invites, local discounts, or free items?

    Imagine a system where viewers from specific regions get exclusive emotes or badges when they join a stream during a special broadcast. It could boost local engagement and bring a fresh layer of interaction to chat.

    What if streamers could partner with businesses or services to deliver surprise perks for their fans? Could Twitch explore features that allow localized fan appreciation right from chat?

  14. When people are gifting large numbers of subs to a streamer (especially when multiple viewers do so back to back), the notifications break the flow of any conversations happening, which effectively makes chat temporarily unusable.

    I don't want to not have a notification for this, because I do appreciate people who gift to my favourite streamers and want their generosity to be recognised, but it would be nice if the notifications could be delivered in a way that doesn't spam the chat. To that end, I'd like to suggest that when multiple subs are being gifted in one go, the…

  16. Have the ability to send bits to fellow chatters in the same stream. A type of high5. There are times in chat where a viewer/chatter helps, and is deserving, and there is no way to show recognition, cheer or donate to them.

  17. I want the channel owner to be able to upload pictures. Without cutting down on the resolution in the chat And viewers in the chat can open the full size image to watch.

    Because I noticed that When the channel owner creates the content by traveling to different places when encountering something interesting or a beautiful view will be able to take pictures and send them to viewers via chat for real-time interaction

    All images may be deleted after the end of the live. Or only those who subscribe will be able to access the images.

    In order to prevent…

  18. Provavelmente a twitch consegue várias informações por meio das mensagens do chat, imaginem a quantidade de informações dos usuários que são perdidas ao apagar as mensagens. A ideia é que, quando o usuário apagar a mensagem que estava sendo digitada no chat a envie para o banco de dados para usar essa informação.
    Um exemplo: O streamer está falando sobre depressão, o usuário até digita uma mensagem sobre algo que está acontecendo com o mesmo, porém exita e apaga a mensagem... Creio que dê para aproveitar essas mensagens apagadas.

  19. Aggiungere un comando (es. announcemod) solo per i moderatori in modo da mandare messaggi in chat tra noi moderatori e streamer senza che il resto della chat lo veda per esempio per fare un annuncio ai mod per non passare da mezzi esterni.
