Trans tag request
It is hard enough finding trans representation in our daily lives. With the LGBTQIA+ tag, one still needs to browse through channels and spend time in them to find trans streamers. A "trans" tag would help people searching for these communities.
Today we are rolling out 350+ tags, including the transgender tag, to provide you with more options on how you express yourself and your content, so that you can more easily connect with one another and build wonderful communities. We are really appreciative for all of the feedback around this topic (and other related suggestions).
We previously told you that we had a better solution to this request than adding the tag, and we were wrong. This has been one of the most popular requests we’ve heard, and the simple truth is that we should have done this sooner. In an effort to think carefully about how to best address this, we only made the situation more difficult. Again, thank you for helping us throughout this process in reevaluating our stance.
Please continue to share ideas and feedback you have to UserVoice, as well as any suggestions for additional tags you feel we may have missed! We are working to invest more into this forum and aim to have faster communications in the future.

This is a garbage reply. Do what you’ve been asked. Stop talking over trans people. We made our needs known. You’re pretending to know better than us.

Please add the trans tag, I'd love to be able to tag myself with that so that other trans people feel comfortable coming to my stream.

Separating gender identities from sexualites with their own tags while also having a LGBT tag is the best idea... Best reason is how you have to go to the last page of the lgbt tag list to find trans people... it’s too vague
