Bring back ethnicity based tags Recently there has been a change from ethnicity based tags to country based tags (ex. Puerto Rican became Puerto Rico, Cuban became Cuba, Filipino became Philippines). Dominicans have been completely erased as there was not even a tag for the Dominican Republic added, just Dominica, and they are not the same country.
This leaves many of us who identify with a certain ethnicity but do not actually live in that country in a weird spot. We should be able to proudly show our ethnicity regardless of where we live. I think that both tags are useful so I would keep…
70 votesThanks so much for sharing this feedback. We took a look at our tags list and understood where you’re coming from. While we originally made this change to better differentiate from our language tags, the change to country names wasn’t clear. We’re sorry for any frustration this change has caused.
Thanks to your feedback, we’ve reinstated tags including Filipino, Cuban, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rican. If there are other tags you would like to see, please submit them individually in a new post. We appreciate all the feedback you and others have shared to help us improve the Tags experience!

"keyboard" tag There has been an influx of keyboard builders on Twitch. I think this would be a very convenient way to filter streamers by this metric.

Puerto Rican Tag +1 Hello all!
I am a streamer from Puerto Rico and I love that the Puerto Rican tag is available along many other tags recently added to help us make connections, both as streamers and viewers of twitch.
I was wondering if it was possible for you guys to consider including another tag that also heavily identifies Puerto Ricans around the world. If you guys could include the term BORICUA as part of the tag selection I could dare say it would have MORE usage than the current Puerto Rican tag, as the term BORICUA means the same, but with a…

Sound Bath Tag and Meditation Tag 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

Add a Godot Engine tag There is already a tag for Unity and for Unreal Engine but none for Godot. Godot Engine is an open-source engine that is growing a lot in popularity. This would help viewers find streams that relate to this engine.

Alcohol-free/sobriety 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

Add tags for Inuit and Métis Nation to include all Indigenous peoples in Canada The only current tag that specifically refers to Indigenous people within Canada's borders is First Nations, which specifically excludes Inuit (akin to Alaska Native which is a tag) and the Métis Nation. Please consult with members of the groups mentioned.

plus size tag I think it's great that 'body positive' will now be one of the stream tags, but it would be helpful to also include 'plus size' as one of the stream tags. Body positivity can represent a wide range of body types, however this would most likely not highlight those that are on the higher end of the spectrum. Those that are a size 20+. It would also give greater visibility to a group that is often marginalized within society. Adding 'plus size' as one of the tags will take the 'body positive' tag one step further and help those who…

Diabetes tag As a type 1 diabetic I quite enjoy meeting other diabetics and discussing the various challenges and experiences we share.
It's helpful to discover other type 1 diabetics, as it combats the sense of isolation you can experience, and often can help normalise the struggles.
There are approximately 1.6m Americans with type 1 diabetes, in my short time on twitch I have personally encountered 10 fellow type 1 diabetics which I believe shows a relatively high density on the platform.
I suggest both a type-1diabetes tag and a type-2-diabetes tag. I feel it's important to differentiate between the two and…

Tag: Psychic or Spirituality Good day. There is barely any exposure for the psychic community on Twitch. People think there is 1 psychic/intuitive/spiritual person only on this platform.
For example, Tarot has 16k followers in the 7? years it has existed.
Hot tubs and pools got over 50k followers in ONE DAY.We need people who are looking for their tribe in a spiritual (NOT RELIGIOUS) way, to be found! (fortune telling is an AWEFUL TAG - brings me back to the 1800's). Also misleading on Twitch's part that someone can bring a fortune to them by a simple interaction, it enables the community…

Jewish Tag Please 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.

Change the "Autism" community tag to "Autistic" 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.

Just wanted to let you all know that we now have an autistic tag along with our already added autism tag.
We really appreciate feedback like this and please let us know if there are any other tags you would like to see added to Twitch <3

We have the aromantic tag, now add in biromantic, panromantic, etc. Many of us in the ace/aro/aspec community (and other parts of the LGBTQIA2+ community) view romantic attraction & ****** attraction as 2 separate things. Adding in these tags would allow us to show more of our identity, and as we all know identity is content.

StarCraft playable race tags 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.
