IRL Week Dedicate a week to IRL streamers that primarily focus on outdoor and social content. They are the street team that share Twitch with the public and work to promote the brand in a positive way. It is their every day interactions that teaches people about Twitch and creates public awareness. Give back to the people putting in the footwork!

Thailand Game Show Next time, should feature the streamers on the show floor promoting the event.
There was an underwhelming viewership on streamer channels and even the official /twitchth channel. It would make sense to display the streams that are going out of their way to promote Twitch, a sponsor of the event.

steam sale tags Feature directories that match up with top sellers and sale items from Steam. A lot of discoverability can be had from playing sale items as many buyers will want to see gameplay before purchase. Cross referencing the tags on top Steam titles and pushing those to the frontpage will increase browsing and discoverability to those playing such titles as well as allow another avenue for devs/pubs to advertise sales.

Auto-scroll through front page after 20-30 secs I've noticed that there is one streamer on the front page getting front page views and then everyone else is kind of hidden behind them, although they still count as being on front page, and it requires an intentional scroll that I personally don't do a lot of unless I get curious.
I do however idle on front page sometimes and I feel like this would help discovery slightly for those streamers who don't load on fp with the site but are still on front page technically...

Allow us to block the music category on front page Every time I load twitch, I'm hearing music. I've NEVER wanted that. I've never asked for a music stream recommendation. Yet I cannot block it. Allow us to opt out. I don't come to this site for music. I come to look for streams of games/content I've actually chosen to follow.

main page carousel category filter The purpose of the carousel is to show people streams that they might not find otherwise. The hope is that they will find things they like and then ideally subscribe and make Twitch some money. This is all good.
The problem is that I can't find any way to filter what is shown in the carousel. Today I went to Twitch and every single item in the carousel was "music". I have zero interest in music streams. Other people might not have any interest in sports, art, or even games.
It would be fantastic if we could (at minimum) exclude…

Remove video player of recommended channels on homepage. I always have to leave the audio on my homepage deafened so I don't get blasted be LGBTQIA+ club music as a recommended on my homepage. I have never watched any of those streams before and It is frustrating seeing these things recommended consistently on the home page. Or at least create an option to disable it.

Don't change front page channels to send you to another suggested channel screen For the the front page, do not have clicking on one of the channels open up another window that just shows even more channels. I have already chosen a channel I want to watch, that's why I clicked on it. There are already nine sections that I counted on the front page with options for streams to choose from. Choosing one and then having to go through yet another screen where I have to find the real button to watch the stream I have already chosen to watch is incredibly annoying, is unnecessarily redundant since there's already multiple sections on…

Autism Awareness Twitch supports Autism Awareness using Game On but if we had streamers on the spectrum featured on the front page that might help encourage and empower others with similar experiences and struggles.
Featuring our lovely streamers that are on the spectrum on the front page for Autism Awareness Month or, at the very least, Autism Awareness Day, would pair perfectly with charities and with helping boost those that do have Autism and prove that we love and support our neurodivergent streamers!

Add Arab American Heritage Front Page Features Every year twitch celebrates diversity on the platform with AAPI heritage month, Hispanic heritage month, Black history month, woman's history month, pride month, etc.
I as well as other Arab streamers were really looking forward to celebration of Arabs or Muslims this year because Arab American heritage month lined up almost perfectly with Ramadan this year!
I was really hoping to be able to discover other Arab streamers on the platform in April or have at least one of Muslim's only two holidays (Ramadan or Eid) or Arab's heritage month to be recognized and celebrated on Twitch's front page.
I…

Show followed channels in top section of Front Page On the front page, there is the section above "Live channels we think you'll like".
Instead of showing random channels that I have no interest in, I think it would be better to show channels that I'm following there instead. Currently, I cannot watch streams of channels that I'm following without going to their stream.

What Twitch needs: random streamers get to the frontpage, 1 per day. So Twitch is getting the whole 'hype train' nonsense thing to get peop What Twitch needs: random streamers get to the frontpage, 1 per day.
So Twitch is getting the whole 'hype train' nonsense thing to get people on the frontpage, even though most of these are the... ahem... 'female streamers in skimpy clothes in sexually suggestive positions/nude' or already popular streamers, driving a massive wedge for discoverability for smaller yet entertaining streamers.
It wouldnt be crazy for Twitch to simply take one random streamer from the bottom drawers (with some kind of filter to prevent the typical moronic '18+SUPER STREAM !SUPPORT !PATREON !TIPS HYPE FOR FORTNITE!' **** from people with zero viewers…

More visibility as a black or bipoc or other marginalized creators & how do those who are partnered get more frequent front page opps Twitch is always asking what they can do better to help elevate and support their bipoc/marginalized creators, but also if they do a good job growing them. My answer to that question has always been a strong no. It feels like there are no means for bipoc/marginalized creators who are not white or white passing to get opportunities such as often being on front page or even marketing unless you know someone who knows someone, or in general are favored by someone within the company. When I contact support as a partner how to be on front page more frequently…

Veterans Day / Month Front Page November is National Veterans and Military Families Month.
There is currently no featured front page activation for Veterans. Veteran's day is November 11th and there are amazing vets that are creating amazing content all year long.Would love to see a feature for Veterans either on Veteran's day, or preferably for the entire month of November. Veteran's are less than 1% of the population and would be an amazing opportunity to highlight creators who fall in this category

Create a Nonbinary/GenderNonConforming Front Page Feature Twitch has done many front page features to celebrate its marginalized creators such as Hispanic Heritage Month, Black History Month, and AAPI Heritage Month. I am proposing the addition of a front page feature to celebrate Nonbinary and Gender-Nonconforming people.
In what was most likely an attempt to be inclusive, Twitch's decision to lump "nonbinary and marginalized genders" into the Women's History Month front page feature in March 2022 was actually a huge misstep. While some nonbinary people may identify as "women-aligned" and be okay with inclusion in women's events, it is dismissive, frustrating, and disappointing to assume all nonbinary…

Move Carousel for Promoted Streamers during BHM/WHM and more Higher Please move the Carousel higher for promoted streamers during Black History Month, Women's History Month, and more.
The point of this is to get more eyes on lesser represented streamers and having to scroll down the page defeats this purpose. Above even "Live channels we think you'll like" would be amazing.

The same streamers on the front page every day I've been a Twitch viewer for years and a content creator for a little over a year now. I dont watch regular TV (for lack of a better term), just Twitch. Theres tons of great content creators out there unfortunately every time I visit the front page, its the same 5-10 streamers EVERY DAY getting all the publicity. Not only is it always the same streamers but its virtually all from the 'music' category which isn't a category I'm interested in. So not only is Twitch cherry-picking the talents they want to see succeed, they're not delivering me content that…

Add Disability Month Front Page Features Twitch does an excellent job curating teams and featuring marginalized creators on the front page during identity based pride months. However, I've never seen one of these happen for disabled creators which I believe is a big missed opportunity.
Being a content creator as a disabled person adds a whole host of additional challenges, such as navigating algorithms that favor consistency with inconsistent bodies. Finding games and programs that are accessible for us for streaming, etc.
I would love to see Twitch uplift the hardworking disabled creators by also hosting a Disability Pride Month and highlighting disabled creators the way…
