Split Gaming and non-game-related content into different platforms Twitch used and suppose to be a gaming platform, where people could show their skill or just play games with like-minded but now with all those categories like just chatting, cooking, pools... It grew to a point that the age restriction of 13 sometimes is not enough and also it brings people to this platform that are not intended to be here. (Pornactress for example)
I do understand that this platform grew a lot since Justin.TV and the Amazon deal and therefore evolved to what it is now but I still think those topics should be separated to keep the…

Viewer Referral / Recommendation System with Rewards Currently, Word of Mouth is a big factor for channels being discovered by new viewers. You've found a great new channel that you think your friends will enjoy so you want to tell them about it. Currently, all you do is share the channel link with your friends and you've directly helped that channel grow... but there's no direct reward for helping that channel.
What if there was a 'referral' system available where you could share a link, with a particular referral code, with your friends and if they choose to follow the channel you receive a bonus amount of…

Twitch I see underage children are on the rise with live streaming on Twitch. I will feel it is safe for the parents to see their children socializing with peers their own age. Is there a way Twitch can separate children from the young adults 18 years of age? Maybe it can be called TwitchKids. It will have the same features as Twitch with young adults that are 18 and up. Twitch will need written permission from their parents or a legal guardian. They also need to monitor their chat. The population on Twitch will be hard to monitor curious underage…

Optional channel travel system. A system that you can opt into that will direct opted in users (at random) to a random partner/affiliate channel who has opted into receiving. Similar to a host; it pulls in any users that want to use this feature to find new content creators. Like a user account signed up for this would be told they are "traveling " to a new channel. A creator signed up for this would receive a messaged like "Get ready!" because the users "traveling" are coming.
(50-1000) a cap to split the signed up base into multiple groups to be sent to multiple…

Custom thumbnail timing through button Twitch automatically generates thumbnail images that are shown in the grid view when scrolling through a category at random times from the stream output .
With most categories on Twitch the automatic thumbnail feature is just fine, as the content on stream matches up with what you want to show for discovery.
However, with the "Software and Game Development" category that is not necessarily the case.The best way for people to discover me is to be interested in the game I make. Optimally the thumbnail would show me showing off the current state of the game and people that…

let users link social media sites like twitter (or addressbook) to our twitch accounts to find people we already know I would love recommend channels to included lists of accounts I followed on twitter (as example) to show up and be promoted on the site and also have people be able to find my twitch account linked via twitter.
Not only would I like this, I would also love to be able to incorporate my address book as well, find people I already know on twitch via my contacts.

Youtube So lately, one of the top streamed content(from what I've seen) is streamers reacting to YouTube videos. What if you could do business with YouTube to have it when Streamers watch these videos, the viewer count from the stream is contributed towards that 1 view from the streamer. Also maybe you could imbed some way to have an Ad play on the side that one would've seen if they clicked on the video themselves.
Then again, idk all of the legal stuff and such that would have to take place. Also it's probably way more complex to have done than…

The Twitch channel should raid other channels Being new to twitch is very daunting, there is so much invisible content that you would never discover unless you knew it was there. Why don't you have a twitch channel that new users can join and the channel goes on a raid journey whereby those in the channel can be exposed to content they would otherwise not have seen, and on the way those who like the channels they visit on the journey can drop a follow or even subscribe or even jump onto the channel they find and like. Like a guided tour bus that you can get…

Guild Since only Partners can run a Stream team, and since "communities" can't be shown on the stream page easily anymore. It'd be really good to have something like "Guild" or "Guild Play" or "Guilded Gaming" something along those lines to be able to denote a stream featuring Players from the same guild doing things. This would also allow guilds to showcase their gameplay and let people look at streams in a game that are featuring such gameplay to find guilds that they would mesh with personality wise!

Blur Previews of Streamers with Partially Exposed Breasts There are many streamers that have their breasts partially exposed, with an excessive amount of cleavage, which is not appropriate for all end users.
The feature request involves a Blurred Preview for these streamers, and the enforcement of the "Mature Content Filter".
This would allow Twitch users to be able to choose the type of content they are exposed to, instead of the select few streamers forcing this content upon all users. It should also enable other streamers, that offer more 'wholesome content' greater success on your platform, and as part of the Twitch Community.

For Game category pages, please ad a link to the Game itself On a Game category page, there's a description of the game, but there's no easy way to find out more about the game.
It would be great to have a link to the games website! For example, on the Valorant page, if I've been watching a streamer and decide I want to play the game, I want to just click a link to go to https://playvalorant.com.

Discoverability I have an idea for increasing Discoverability on the platform. Twitch already tracks what channels users already watch which then is used to recommend viewers to new "similar" channels that they might enjoy, but from my experience very few people actually take the initiative to go into their channel and watch. I think that for this approach to work you need to brute force people into trying out new streams by having a sort of "reward" system where you get rewarded in either bits or subs to the creator by watching for longer periods of time. This will make more…

hide 18+ content while not logged in I would love to see a site wide discoverability feature that universally lets me or any user "hide streams that are all 18+ content. " With a very simple toggle button to hide those channels.
In addition to this, having all 18+ content not visible in any discovery page if a user is not logged in to the site.
to clarify: 18 plus content may or may not include political or sensitive topics, graphic video games, or catergories etc.
Being able to quickly toggle and categorize these channels either universally help create targeted ads for these channels, potentially turn ads…

Enlace de Twitch con acceso al canal Creo que sería una buena idea premiar con alguna recompensa extra dentro del panel de control del canal si un streamer utilizar su enlace de Twitch para que usuarios de otras redes sociales accedan, como por ejemplo Twitter, Instagram, etc..
Es probable que algunas personas no hayan accedido a la plataforma nunca, y con ello se genere nuevos usuarios que se afilien a Twitch y comiencen a visitarlo con más frecuencia y vea mayor contenido.
Con ello no me refiero a una recompensa económica, si no logros como los que tenemos ya disponibles, y en este caso sería algo como:…

A way to select what named DLC/Expansion of a game that is being streamed. Due to many games getting significant expansions, I think there should be a way to sort between DLCs/Expansions of a game.
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is a great example here. This game has three seperate expansions (one of which is coming out next week). For some reason though, when selecting a game to stream there are only two options; The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth and The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.
Due to Twitch's name rules, the other expansion The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ did not get a twitch game name. The final, biggest and most impactful expansion, The Binding…
