  1. I stream "stationery" streams in the Makers & Crafting section. This includes things like showing how I write and decorate my journal, explain what makes a new fountain pen special, or set up my bullet journal for the new month. I'd love to see tags added for myself and others to make that content type stand out.

    These tags could include "Stationery," "Journaling," and "Planning." I know others in the community are interested in streaming stationery on Twitch, and I think this would help us build more of a community.

    Hey all! 


    Thanks so much for the feedback on adding these tags. I'm happy to share that we now have 'journaling', 'planning', and 'stationery' all as their own tags on Twitch now. 


    Let us know if there are any other tags you would like to see added to the site! 

  2. Having just had our previous campaign closed, stating that this is now solved by CUSTOM TAGS, this is absolutely not the case.

    Twitch has always had music tags such as: Trance, House, Techno, Dubstep and others which sit directly underneath the Main Music Category.

    Drum & Bass is equally as large a community on Twitch as any of those categories, and instead of enabling us to unify through a central music category, you state that Custom Tags is enough. It is not. It spreads our community out through all the general misspellings; eg. DNB, Drumandbass, Drumnbass, Jungle, Liquid, Neurofunk, Ragga,…

    Twitch no longer supports "official" tags, but we have created a series of new genre-based collections including one for Drum and Bass.  This will aggregate all live music streams in a single, permanent location to bookmark here: https://www.twitch.tv/directory/collection/drum-and-bass-streams


    This not only includes streams with the tags DNB and DRUMANDBASS, but also JUNGLE, LIQUID, NEUROFUNK, RAGGA, TECHSTEP, OLDSKOOL, LIQUIDFUNK, DARKSTEP, FUNKSTEP, ELECTROFUNK, and DRUMNBASS.  


    In addition, a shelf will also appear in our music directory featuring a selection of live channels when there are enough live music streams using the tag concurrently: https://www.twitch.tv/directory/music

  3. A veteran tag would allow the various veteran streaming communities to find each other, and assist each other better. Many veterans stream to help others fighting PTSD, trauma, and veteran suicide.

  4. Would love to see a vegan tag so that we can connect with other vegan streamers, build our community and promote education and advocacy.
    It is always very exciting to find another vegan streamer in the wild. But it's very hard for us to reach each other on twitch as there are no community features that accommodate this. With plant-based nutrition becoming a growing market and the vegan movement getting larger day by day, I think that it would be nice for us to have a tag to further build that community.

  6. There are many streamers who will drink on stream, talk about drinking on stream, or just generally talk about alcohol, which could be uncomfortable for others for many reasons. Would be awesome to be able to tag yourself as an alcohol-free or sober stream

  7. The RTS games, StarCraft & StarCraft 2 feature 3 playable races: Zerg, Protoss, and Terran.

    Currently, there's no great way to filter the starcraft categories for streamers playing a particular race.

    The new tag system including every league of legends champion as a tag sets a precedent for this change and would improve viewing experience and discoverability.

  8. Hello!
    Myself and many other creators are streaming and creating sound baths in a few different categories and it would be great if people could find us and we could find each other, there have been many other generes of music added and sound baths would be great.
    Also to accompany this I suggest a meditation tag as there are many communities hosting meditation sessions and guided meditation sessions with and without sound baths.

    Many Thanks

  9. The newly added "autism" tag from Twitch differs majorly from other community tags. Instead of focusing on people from the community specifically (such as the Blind, d/Deaf, Disabled, and many other tags), the tag calls on a "broad" autism community. The tag as it currently is will very likely result in usage by family members, friends, allies, and professionals in the autism world and end up minimizing actually autistic voices. In order to full uplift autistic voices, please change this tag to "autistic" or at least add an additional autistic tag.

  11. Most average Twitch streams are not necessarily sensory-friendly for neurodivergent folks or just folks who prefer chiller spaces. I know we currently have a "cozy" space but cozy and sensory-friendly are not necessarily aligned.
    Sensory-friendly looks like no loud alerts, no shouting, calmer visuals, etc.

    I would love the opportunity to be able to communicate to other neurodivergent humans that my space will be safe for them and less likely to cause over-stimulation and I'm sure that other sensory-friendly creators would as well!

  12. With over 350 new tags added, I was immensely disappointed to see the lack of a tag for the Jewish community. Jewishness is an ethnoreligion, not just a religion, and we deserve to be able to find each other just like any other community.

  13. Bring back the ability to use regular tags. The custom tags are nice, but there is currently no option to use the tags we had access to before unless entering manually. The requirements for these custom tags (ie, no spaces) precludes some tags like 'body positive' or 'mental health'. Having the ability to choose from the multitude of tags that were recently introduced, as well as define user tags, just makes sense if you want to truly promote individuality. Using ONLY custom tags means that some people will be using tags no one else is, and therefore their streams will…

    Hi everyone!
    We're thrilled to announce the launch of custom tag suggestions. This feature was inspired by the requests you have provided here on UserVoice, and we're so excited to finally be able to provide this functionality.
    Suggestions for custom tags (1) reduce the chances of manual errors made by streamers when adding tags to their stream info and (2) allow viewers to more-intuitively explore existing tags to find content relevant to their interests!
    We hope you'll enjoy this addition. Please feel free to provide us with feedback (https://link.twitch.tv/CustomTagsFeedbackUV), so that we can continue improving the ability for streamers and their communities to connect!

  15. recently, a large amount of tags were added to help identify the streamer, in my eyes a great idea for helping build communities of support. however, since most of these tags were put out suddenly in a large list, some of us feel like a very jarring tag was missed: Plural.
    Plurality is a complicated, varied concept, yet still a extremely important identifier for many of us. Currently, the only way for us to tag our plurality is with the "dissociative dissorder" tag, but this is not actually helpful, Dissociative dissorders are also complicated and varied, with many dissociative dissorders…

  16. Consoles we are playing should have their own tags. It would help people who enjoy certain consoles to find content they love. This can apply to current generation games and retro. Since Retro is a category that is healthy and growing with lots of talented and incredible broadcasters, it would be cool to have tags based on the system we are playing to help discoverability. Since streaming in each game tends to make the experience more fragmented, people tend to stream under the general Retro category. When streaming under retro using a tag for the system you are playing could…

  18. A recent change to the IGDB classified Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate for the Switch as a 'version' of Monster Hunter Generations for the 3DS - removing the Generations Ultimate directory entirely from Twitch.
    This is a problem for quite a few streamers and viewers alike as the games provide entirely different and expanded experiences from one another, and viewers might search out someone playing the 3DS base game as opposed to the expanded iteration for the Switch that came later on.

    Most people playing either of these entries today are streaming "Generations Ultimate" for the Switch. It's a game that…
