  1. "songbattle.io" is a music-based tournament that is often played by streamers along with their communities and audience. These streamers have been asking us, the developers, for a category repeatedly, and do revert to "Just Chatting" most of the time.

    We have proposed songbattle.io to IGDB, but were rejected due to them not considering it a game by their guidelines. Instead, they proposed we try here, referring to cases such as "Dungeon Alchemist", which is not a game per se, but still used by streamers and their audience.

    Thanks for considering!

    We appreciate your patience while your Twitch category request for Songbattle.io was considered. This request will not be accepted as the application does not contain enough gameplay to be considered a video game under IGDB's content policy. Please kindly note that the decision on this matter is final.

  2. Creators On Twitch should be Able to Opt-Out of ICE Recruitment Ads.

    Many of our communities are comprised of people actively being harmed by ICE Policies and Actions Under Trump. There are already creators saying they'll leave Twitch, or use Ad-Blockers More which will harm the platform as a whole (both in revenue and viewership).

    This principle should also apply to Military, or any Government Recruitment; saying this as a Military Veteran myself, with members of my community also being veterans.

    I Feel We should be allowed to deny Advertisements for ICE, who are committing violent extra-judicial and unconstitutional actions…

    Hi @Reneta_Scian. We appreciate you raising this concern. Claims that ICE runs ads on Twitch are untrue, and no one has approached us to run ads. There are no plans for any advertising campaigns for ICE.

  3. Please can we have a Drum and Bass tag for DJs of this genre? It is not House/Trance or Techno and it's so hard to find streamers specifically in this genre.

    Many thanks Twitch team.

  4. Just like IronMON, Nuzlocke and Shiny Hunting are 2 big parts of the Pokémon community and 2 tags we would very much like to help discoverability with our streams. When looking for these it can be difficult as everyone streams under the most recent game, so everything gets jumbled up and lost. Having these tags to help people find these better would be very useful!

    Tags:
    1) Nuzlocke
    2) Shiny Hunting

  5. Went to stream and usually I will use Blind Playthough to note that a game i'm playing for the first time. This does two things, first I personally like to watch people who are experiencing a game for teh first time, and relive the journey i had through them. Second, It lets my audience know that I'm exploring a game at my own pace, and thats part of the journey and for them not to backseat game.

    So its weird to me the sudden removal of it, When its probably one of the more useful ones.

  6. I would like to see Twitch add tags for more sign languages. Despite what a lot of people believe. ASL (American Sign Language) is not a universal language for Deaf people.

    There is BSL (British Sign Language), NZSL (New Zealand Sign Language) and many, many more!

    It can be extremely isolating for those that can only communicate via sign language. And with a place like Twitch constantly bringing people together, just think of the spaces that will become available to Deaf people if these tags are made available to them and how much visibility they will receive as a result.

  7. Given the growing number of streamers who use the Esperanto language actively, perhaps it is time for Twitch to provide an Esperanto tag for the benefit of learners and native speakers who wish to identify such streamers quickly.

  8. This year Twitch has totally gutted me this year for Pride. I am sad not only for myself but other LGBTQIA+ streamers who can not use the Pride 2022 tag to celebrate Pride. The Pride tag this year is only allowed to the chosen few Twitch feels okay with to represent the community. This is wrong, and a clear sign of gate-keeping. Pride is about celebrating ALL, not a select few. I propose that all of us should be allowed to us this tag OR change the name of the tag to 'Pride 2022 Feature'.

    Thank you.

  9. Some content creators on twitch are unable to / don't want to use their voice on twitch and opt to use subtitles, chat, and TTS to communicate.

    It would be amazing if twitch would create a Mute tag for these creators to help improve the visibility for these streamers and help viewers see what kind of content they are going to be watching so we don't have to put MUTE STREAMER in our titles every time!

  10. I'm an art streamer who carves realistic pumpkin portraiture all year long on foam and organic pumpkins. I also make a lot of other spooky themed art content. However, there are no useful tags that apply to my medium or the style of my work.

    The Vibe of the art that I'm creating would fit under a "Spooky", "Halloween" , or even "Dark Art" type of tag. There are a ton of folks on twitch that enjoy playing spooky games and many art/maker and crafting streamers whom could benefit from adding this or similar content description tags.

    Thanks for your…

  11. Please create a No Commentary category for viewers who want to watch gameplay that does not feature webcams and mics.

    Or create a No Commentary tag that streamers can use so people can search the tag and find the content.

  12. Add more specific tags for science and engineering topics - right now everything counts as engineering, whether you're doing chemistry experiments, raising a colony of animals for study, or designing and building a circuit board. Even broad categories (science demonstration, electronics, biology, chemistry, geology, etc.) could dramatically increase discoverability for these sorts of streaming topics.

    Hey,

    I'm happy to announce that you should be able to describe your stream in your own words with the help of custom tags. Whether you want to discuss metamorphic rocks and plate tectonics, you can add up to ten tags to describe your geology stream, for example. For more information, check out our blog post here.

  13. Ace Spec folks deserve representation too!

  14. Many streamers talk about sexual health with an informative and educational intent to sensitize people to issues that are important for the psychophysical well-being of everyone.

    A specific tag would be useful to distinguish this type of content from others that talk about sexuality in a superficial way.

  15. In Music and Live Performance you cannot add a tag with your specific musical instrument, nor can you search the Music and Live Performance area for a specific instrument that you’re interested in seeing performed. I’d love to see Twitch add tags for instruments like drum set, guitar, piano, violin, etc. This will help viewers narrow their searches as well as allow streamers to more easily find others playing the same instrument.

  16. I am a blacksmith and I stream on Twitch (Blacksmith_Pop). When I first got on and looked for more blacksmiths I could not find any but I happened upon an entire community of blacksmiths. I would like to propose a Tag for Blacksmiths,
    It could be Blacksmith , Blacksmiths or Blacksmithing .
    We would greatly appreciate it.

  17. I exclusively stream beadwork and none of the current categories fit my type of craft. "Jewelry" sort of works for beaded medallions and earrings, but not for patches, wall decor and traditional regalia. Because of this, I believe this will be harder for fans of this craft to find relevant streams. Instead, potential viewers will have to find streams by chance or filter through tags until they get lucky. Which is exactly what I did until I finally found other beaders. All of which list their craft under different tags. If not a dedicated beadwork tag, allow streamers to add…

    Please add a Bigender tag for individuals who consider themselves to be Bigender. This will help keep twitch inclusive and keep users educated.
