  1. There's a considerable amount of streamers who cover this type of content and this is not just small talk, it's not just chatting. These are more meaningful topics being covered and are worthy of having a more comprehensive category. Most streamers avoid the Politics category because its scope is too narrow. They're drawn to Just Chatting where most of the "appealing" content takes place in the hopes they will get noticed. Some reasons would be because these communities/topics are niche, smaller in size, and not as common or frequent. Many existing IRL categories are grouping similar content together, which is…

  2. Warhammer 40k gladius is a fun game that many people enjoy but it lacks its own category on twitch. It would be nice for it to have its own category so it's easier to look for people who play and stream it

  3. We should be able to set our own default sorting instead of having to change it every time. I will ALWAYS switch from recommended to viewers high to low, every time. And it's pretty annoying having to change it every time instead of being able to just set my preference for it and have it automatically set to what I like, instead of what you want me to see.

  6. New Category: 3D Printing.

    3D Printing streams have consumed the Makers & Crafting section on Twitch making the category painful to scroll through to find anything that isn't a 3D printer stream. Can they please get their own category?

  7. The ASMR category and a lot of its creators have been affected by a massive wave of ear licking streams, which do not reflect the ASMR category's purpose.
    I'm proposing the creation of a different category for that so that creators can all have their streams labelled correctly and viewers can easily find what they are looking for.
    There are a lot of different subcategories when it comes to ASMR and I think it's important for Twitch to notice and do something about it. Imagine playing a game under a category called "Games", it wouldn't specify what the stream is…

  8. Non-affiliates can only share their default resolution while streaming. (When I started, this was over 1080p.) So putting yourself in the viewer's shoes, if that resolution is quite high (720p or higher) then you virtually cannot watch that streamer on your mobile device. If you tried, you would buffer a lot, get frustrated, and leave. This uniquely negatively impacts non-affiliates. Please add at least one low resolution option for viewers whose setups cannot match the streamer's default.

  9. Why do I have 4 filter options for the music section, 2 of which I use often, but for the just chatting section I am limited to the least useful 2 of the 4 like what? Whose idea was this? There are also so many people clearly gaming in the just chatting section, and at the bottom of the music section, which is impacting visibility of original content creators in the music section, who are clearly crucial and flourishing in the ecosystem

    Please provide examples of what you are seeing. Without additional context, this suggestion lacks clarity. Thank you.

  10. when i open a category tab in the top you can see the amount of viewers and the amount of followers for that category - it would also be useful to know the current amount of streamers for that game

  11. What about programming your algorithm so it remembers what i want to see and don't regarldess of wich device i'm using?

    If I'm not interested in a channel, i filter it out, so why your page doesn't remember that i dont want to see said channel and it shows it again? if i switch between desktop, mobile and console it still shows those channels, which it shouldnt

    More Info Needed  ·  Ana responded

    Hi,

    Do you have an example of a channel you have marked as not interested that shows up on a different device (also, which devices do the marked channels show and on which pages)? Thank you in advance for the additional context.

  12. "DisabilityAwareness" should be a usable tag. It signifies the channel shows a particular importance for issues and topics regarding people with disabilities. As it stands, Twitch doesn't allow its use due to some automatic moderation. Why is DisabilityAwareness moderated out? Could this be fixed?

    Thank you.

    Where is this moderated out? When testing this, I was able to add the tag to my stream info. Please let me know. Thanks.

  13. TLDR: Don't show me there is 11 viewers in "tiny rogues" category if no one is streaming in english.

    I would like not to see categories of games if the streamers currently streaming don't speak stream in languages I can understand.

    Every time I click on the game I want to watch there are no streamers in languages I speak.

    But there is no way for me to know before clicking on a category.

    As I watch a lot of less popular indie games it really annoys me.

    Sometimes I click on 5 different game categories and find noone streaming…

  14. We would love to see a general Star Wars category where all fans doing all things Star Wars related could stream in that category. For example, playing SWTOR? You could stream in that category. Star Wars cosplayers could stream in the category. Other Star Wars games, same thing. The Star Wars game viewership isn't as large as other categories, but Star Wars content combined could be something great. We'd love to see this happen so we could help the games get more traffic and meet a lot more Star Wars nerds. ;o) Thanks!

  16. Self titled, why is "Hitless" banned from being used as a category? I'm certain this is a bug, because if it isn't, then it was just an incredibly poor decision.

    Team Hitless is an entire group of no hit runners, and have a Twitch Team established. Damageless is allowed, NoHit is allowed, Deathless is allowed, even "Hitlesss" is allowed which further leads me to believe it's a mistake.

    I think if somehow on the very off chance this isn't a bug, Twitch should really consider what they were thinking when making that decision.

  17. Instead of being just like the gaming categories, additionally add a keyword section to Just Chatting which would then prioritize streams based on relevance.

    With the size of directory, this would help end user find content based on their interest/search, and it would also give better discoverability for IRL based content without having to rely on the category system that exists on the gaming side of the platform.

  18. Klip aldıktan sonra oyun kategorisi seçemiyorum. Bazen yayındayken farklı bir oyuna geçiyorum ve yayın bilgisini düzenliyorum, fakat klip aldığımda ilk oyunun adı gözüküyor. Kliplerin ayar seçenekleri artarsa harika olmaz mı?

  19. Because twice now I've been unable to watch a channel without specified reason (as in: I am NOT blocked nor banned nor ignored by those streamers, as I can still chat, and can verify the messages goes through, and even follow them as usual), I get a "You are not allowed to watch this stream" followed by "Content blocked", and it has only been affecting my account (that I know of), as I can still pop out the stream on a private window or incognito mode, or even log out and watch the stream without that prompt happening.

  20. When a streamer's category is set to any of the 45 games in the "The Legend of Zelda:" series (except for the first one), the sidebar will only read "The Legend of Zel...".
    This leaves it unclear which Zelda game the streamer is playing, until you hover over their entry in the sidebar.

    Renaming the categories, e.g. from "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" to "Zelda: Ocarina of Time", would fix this.
    The first game in the series should still be called "The Legend of Zelda" since it doesn't have a second title.
