  1. The removal of the previously pre-set list of tags to choose from was definitely not the way to go.

    Having custom tags is great for a number of reasons such as having a niche/indie stream, but removing the preceding list and the ability to easily choose pre-determined tags only makes things unnecessarily inconvenient for people who were perfectly fine with the tags that were available before.

    Now it adds just that much more time to setting up a stream by having to write every tag in its entirety. It also affects streamers who do things like speedruns because now they…

  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. Trying to decide which variation on a tag to use can be guesswork in the current system. When entering a tag, the function should show similar tags in use and indicate in some way which tags are popularly used and/or searched, such as number of live streams with the tag. Platforms such as Twitter have a similar feature when entering a hashtag.

  5. Overwatch 2 has started and the old Overwatch tags have disappeared from Twitch, so I can't search for past Overwatch clips in the clip manager.

  7. Currently, there is no way to use the Helix API to inspect the custom tags of a given stream. Previously, with the preset tag list, the Get-Streams endpoint (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-streams) would include an array of tag_ids, which could then be inspected to filter streams automatically. This is still included in responses, and still contains the language tag, but doesn't include any information on custom tags.

    This is an issue because bots which previously relied upon the pre-set tag list to filter streams can no longer use tag information at all, because they cannot see custom tags in any way.

  8. A quanto pare non sono il solo su Twitch ma l'assistenza mi ha praticamente rimbalzato di qua e di la per non verificare questa cosa come mai accada. E' dal mio primo giorno di Twitch che ogni volta devo inserire i tags perché non si salvano, dopo 10 minuti scompaiono da soli durante la live, e rimane l'unico tag che fa riferimento alla lingua del canale. Es: inserisco ''guitar'', ''onemanband'' e ''looper'', si vedono e sono ricercabili per i primi 10 minuti della live e dopo scompaiono da soli e vengono sostituiti da ''italiano''. Le ho provate tutte: ho inserito…

  9. why is "white" and "straight" not allowed as a stream tag? i feel that there is no issue with these terms and this is twitch actively being discriminatory towards people with these attributes. why also is "i hate men" allowed and "i hate women" not? this is backwards logic when you parade "inclusivity" for all who are not white, straight and male, what did they do to you? can we have a platform that is unbiased when it comes to politics and be inclusive for all and not just everyone who is progressive?

  10. It would be great if the search tags option had the "old" tags that have been updated for the new system still there and searchable via autocomplete. As it stands, there are no searchable tags by autocomplete (i.e. you have to input any tags manually to search for them). Also, the ability to use wildcards or the ability for the search to be inclusive of letters after what you've searched for would be great. As an odd example, if you searched for the "app" tag, the "apple" tag would also pop up.

  11. 사용자 지정 태그가 누락됩니다.
    방송 전 or 방송 후 어떤 때에 설정하더라도 5~10분 내에 태그가 사라집니다.
    어떤 때는 설정 화면에서는 제대로 설정 된 것처럼 보이지만, 실제로 방송을 검색하거나 채널을 확인하게 될 경우 태그가 없고 해당 태그로 검색지면에 노출되지 않습니다.
    정상적인 사용자 지정 태그 적용이 될 수 있도록 조치가 필요합니다.

  12. Prefacing this by saying that this isn't an attack on the trans community (I'm also a Chinese trans girl). I'm posting this because of anti-Black racism in channel tags.

    I've been searching for trans creators by searching for trans in the "Search category tags" box. But one of the results returned "Trans Lives Matter", which is anti-Black. It coopts the Black Lives Matter movement, and erases anti-Black oppression.

    I'm proposing that any tags that coopt the BLM movement should be deleted (so any "___ Lives Matter" tags that are not explicitly about Black people/lives should be deleted). There are other…

  13. I tried to submit feedback throughs customer service but it forwarded me here which does not seem like a form to provide feedback but anyways. I have my Twitch language set to English, yet its showing me tags in Swedish. With very clunky translations I might add.

    Please show tags in the language selected on the website.

    Hello! Thank you for letting us know about this help article error. We have corrected this. We will be leaving your suggestion open, thank you for the feedback!

  15. 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.

  17. Technically twitch already has this feature, but it's not on tags, but on language settings. When I change the twitch language, the streams that has the language tag that matches the viewer language setting are promoted to the first row.

    I wonder if it can be generalized to other tags - e.g., have a list of highlighted tags in setting so that the streams that contains any of these tags are promoted to the first row. The language tag could be the default one, so it doesn't change anything if you don't modify it.

    This is different from filtering by…

  18. Allow users to tag their stream as having turned on Twitch integration for the game they are playing.

    Twitch integrations, either added by the developer or through mods, can be a fun way for viewers to interact with the streamer and the game that they are playing. At the moment there is no way for viewers to find streamers who have integrations turned on.

    Even if you search for a specific game which has the potential to integrate with Twitch, there is no guarantee that the streamer has the feature turned on.

    This tag would allow streamers to indicate that…

  19. There are several tags that are banned, but which have equivalents that are not. These should be either all removed from, or all added to, the list of banned tags to make them consistent.

    • 'Bisexual' and 'Asexual' are allowed, but 'Heterosexual' and 'Homosexual' are not.

    • Likewise, 'Bi' and 'Ace' are allowed, but 'Hetero' and 'Homo' are not.

    • 'Gay' and 'Lesbian' are allowed, but 'Straight' is not.

    • 'Black', 'Asian', 'Hispanic' etc. are allowed, but 'White' is not.

  20. Games with trigger warnings, especially ones that could be dangerous to a viewer like "photosensitivity warning" or "dark matter" warning should have those tags automatically added to any stream with the game to prevent medical issues for viewers stumbling into the stream.
