Auto-start should be a main feature for Twitch, instead of having to refresh the page because "Offline" Chat explains that you are watching a 'Live' program, but it still says it's 'Offline' on your screen. That is a huge issue for Twitch.

Critical issue that needs fixing ASAP, missing out on so much live content because of having to micromanage a stream myself as a viewer.

And what about a streamer who's internet drops longer than the time allowed by Twitch? When the streamer fixes it, his audience isn't warned.

Auto start was a key feature for me. I hope it gets fixed soon.

this is terrible, luckily I have the twitch app on my phone which dings when the stream is live so I know when to reload, but that is usually a little late and I miss the very start of the stream

Waiting on the channel, streamer goes online but the stream doesn't start. Need to refresh everytime. I'm using Chrome.
