  1. Why have the channels that you follow been moved off of the side bar. I rarely watch live and having easy and quick access to channels that I follow regardless of whether they are live or not is important.

    The side bar currently only contains; your followed channels that are currently live (this is good keep it) & recommended channels (this is useless, as the front page already has this and does it better, remove it. its using valuable space unnecessarily)

    Bring back followed channels to the side bar, live ones at the top and offline ones under. Nothing else.

  2. The LGBTQ community uses a number of short forms that all mean the same thing like LGBTQ LGBTQ+ LGBTQIA and so on the system reads each of these searches as different tags.

    The new tag system is great but I have to use 5 tags one for bisexual and 4 for spelling variation on LGBTQ or I miss anyone who's searching a different spelling.

    My solution on your profile allow you to set these commonly used types of tags. Gender, Sexuality, Pronouns, Ethnicity.

    These are tags I see alot that get reused every stream and take up slots that could…

  4. Upcoming Streams section is mostly always inaccurate and therefore unhelpful. For me, on average, more than half of the streams listed as scheduled, the user hasn't been active for over 6 months. If there was a way to hide a user from that section or to auto disenroll them from that section if they haven't streamed in a month or missed multiple scheduled streams. Otherwise it's just a big giant inaccurate unhelpful section.

  5. I would love to see an actual category devoted entirely to only Veterans. We could provide our proof of service to be given access to stream in the channel and everyone, whether they are a veteran or not could interact and participate. It would allow millions of veterans to connect and interact with those that support our veterans.

  6. Small business is the backbone of a successful economy. I would like to see you create a Business, Technology, and Innovation category for the entrepreneurial community so they can help mentor and guide people that want to build a new or better an existing business.

  7. A big issue with discoverability on Twitch, especially with retro or niche topics, is through how Categories are currently handled. When categorizing what the stream is doing, there is only two extreme options of the exact, specific game ("Pokémon Scarlet/Violet" or "Final Fantasy XII Remake") or the broadest topic of the game ("Retro" or "Games + Demos"), with no middle ground to help summarize things and no choice to have more than 1 game in your category. Along with this, retro titles (Such as older Final Fantasy games), are basically screwed into being a part of the extremely broad categories…

  8. 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?

  9. Last year, you all implemented a "coworking" tag for WFH, study, and remote working streams.

    All of us in the coworking community really appreciated the tag! It helped users and viewers find streamers to study alongside, especially in a time when everyone was working from home. Even now, a year and a half out from the tag introduction, many users are still working from home, looking for coworking streams to pass the time and find company in.

    Unfortunately, the addition of custom tags—while innovative and helpful for many streamers generally—has presented a problem for the coworking community. It's no longer…

  10. I've been asked to stream on Twitch from time to time, although I'm usually on here to watch streams of the game I developed. I chase storms and currently have a Youtube channel for it, but during a chase this summer I met someone who was livestreaming their chase to Twitch. I couldn't help but notice these streams are marked as "just chatting," which I feel makes this particular interest more difficult to find for those who would like to watch it, and oversaturates the "just chatting" category.

  11. It would be useful to include separate tags for the two main Portuguese dialects: Português (BR) and Português (EU). There appears to be a lot more Brazilian streamers than European Portuguese on Twitch, but it would help to have separate tags to identify the two.

  12. Not everyone likes the same things, but some topics are being treated as if they're ubiquitously enjoyed by absolutely everyone. Each time I encounter a specific topic that's being pushed through the front page, I immediately exit the site. Marketing these streams to me does nothing to improve my opinion of them, and only serves to reduce my opinion of Twitch. Allow me to customize my feed in a way such that I can avoid content that I know that I will never like.

  13. Hi. Can you please add own category for indoor rowing app named EXR (exrgame.com). All other bigger eracing platforms like zwift or RGT cycling has their own category, but this EXR rowing doesnt have. When i´m streaming EXR, i need to use Fittness and healt or what ever category and that really sucks!

  16. I have a few suggestions as a content viewer.
    Followed Channel tweaks
    The Followed Channel Text section is too large.
    The New sorting option is pointless as I have no idea its logic. Not knowing its logic makes it HARDER to find the stream you are looking for.
    Add a low to high viewer count sorting option. Some people follow large streamers that they hardly watch.
    Show every live streamer followed in the section WITHOUT having to hit Show More. Make it scroll if you have to.
    Add a custom order sorting option so I can tier my favorite streamers…

  17. Yes, I am aware there is UnwantedTwitch extension for Chrome and Firefox.

    No, we should not have to rely on a third party extension to have this feature to allow hiding a streamer/game/tag/category whom someone is not interested on.

    Allow viewers more control on what gets displayed at any given time to them anywhere in the site. Can even put the data this would provide to some good use internally.

  18. I've noticed that with the new "Followed Channels" update all offline channels now seem to be sorted completely randomly. This makes it difficult to find offline channels with new streams and usually I just give up on watching the VODs on twitch and watch them on another platform instead.

  19. I think you should add a sub-category that says (playing with viewers). I specifically like to watch streamers when i can play with them. (modern warfare, superautopets, etc.) whatever game idfc. It would be nice to filter out streamers who are just playing games.
