it would be great to be able to organize the channels we follow and put them into folders or self made catagories and sort them in the order we want when they are live.

Instead of organizing the followed channels by viewers only. Allow each stream to be apart of a folder group. Folder groups allow you to see the group you assign that person to, such as Twitch Partners, Twitch Affiliates, Twitch Streamers or custom entries such as "Streamers that always have 5,000+ viewers" or "Stream Team - Drip Squad" or "Stream Team - Moonlit Yakuza" or "Phantom Society Friends".

Allow a page where you can place that allows you to automatically drag and drop say a stream team into the folder or allow you to manually check a checkbox next to names for certain folders to be added with ease.

Perhaps when hovering over the name. Allow the browser to open a window after 3 seconds to show that person's profile page, viewers, followers, LIVE/not LIVE, stream team info, etc.

In addition to the folders, let there still be a viewer count next to the folder name. Which counts the total amount of viewers inside the folder. Folders should be expandable and collapsible on the side panel to allow ease of access.

Lastly and most importantly, I think there should be a category in the folder system where you can add and remove filter options also. This should include:
Channels inactive for 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year.
Game Category Lists
Friends List
Total Stream time within last day, 2-6 days, last week, last month to give an analytic approach on how much uptime people have.
This could also reflect average view counts/sub counts and such that reflect on twitchtracker.com

A quality of life improvement such as this is well needed on a platform like this, but I suggest a smooth basic system to manage this and to not be so clunky would be ideal and user friendly.

Add a way to sort/order followed channels with custom categories. The system can be simple to classify them only or we can also imagine a system to manage notification rules by "channel categories".

this would be a lovely feature.

On a users left hand followed channels list It would be cool if we were allowed to hover over a random streamer with our cursor and see a muted live view of the stream to see if we want to click in at that moment or not. Idk just a random thought.

When you start to follow more channels it becomes a messy experience. You forget the channel name so you have to look through the whole channels following list which is not fun to do that's for sure or when you look through who is on live it's also not fun to keep scrolling through everything to find your favourites or what you feel like watching at the time.

Why can't there be like an add stars l/ favourites feature to channels we enjoy the most at present so that those channels are always at the top of our lists and at the top of the Following - Live section as well. This at minimum would be amazinggggg! Obviously, we should be able to add and remove stars as our interest changes. If you want to be fancy this is something you could report back to streamers - how many people have starred their channel as favourites etc.

Then secondly if it could automatically break down into categories at least in the Following - Channels section or that we can create our own folders. So we can tag and put some channels in Music, some IRL, some in Gaming and so forth. That way if we want to watch "X"or a particular category we can easily sort through who is live at the time or find the channel we are after when offline for vods.

It kind of makes you unfollow channels just to keep your Following - Live section clean of what no longer interests you right now and that's drastic because maybe you would watch again later if you could sort it better.

playlists and likes/favs would be nice
I find looking for things in general a little difficult on twitch

I follow a lot of twitch channels and I rely on the "followed channels" tab to see who is currently live. The problem is that since I follow so many channels, and the list is ordered by viewer count, many of the streams I like to watch get buried far down the list and I end up not realizing they are live. I would love to be able to choose streams as a "favorite" and have those at the top of the sidebar so I will always be able to tell when my favorite streams are live. Thank you! :)

A categorization feature to organize the follow list would be incredible. You'd be able to make folders for channels you visit frequently and another folder for channels you visit from time to time.

I love to support as many people as possible, but having to hit "show more" several times gets very frustrating. This leads to a potential purge of the list which is unideal.

I would like to be able to mark channels as favorites and see them at the top of the Live section. This is why I am very selective of who I follow. I do not want to follow 100+ channels, when I am only actively watching 5-10. This is bad for streamers, because it lowers their potential follower counts.

Your suggestion is more advanced, as you could create a Favorites category, but also different ones.

I'd like to be able to sort followed channels by category. So I can see all the streamers I follow playing GTA or Just Chatting. I'd like to be able to pick a category like GTA then search within that category for NoPixel or another server. By either using a search bar or a tag specific to that category.

I was looking for this suggestion! I follow so many streamers now it's easy to miss someone I'd have loved to watch only to find out they were streaming later through hearing about it from a friend! Really need a category for streamers who usually play x games, my teams and streams I regularly watch. So then I can also easily go outside of those categories and find someone I haven't watched in a while :)

This feature can be special for "twitch prime gaming" or at least 1 subscription on any channel.

Instead of having our dozens (hundreds!?) of followed channels in one lump, allow us to create custom-named folders to group our channels like we want... sports, music, games, etc....

Hi guys!

If you follow 50+ channels on twtich, it can be hard to keep track on who's streaming but you also don't wanna unfollow channels which you just watch every now and then. I suggest that there is an option where you can create custom folders that you can name however you want.

i.e.: A Priority, B Priority, C Priority.
or: League of Legends, Shooters, IRL, others

Not sure if this is the right place for this idea but I hope i managed to make my point clear. I would love to hear your opinion on this!

Cheers

So let's say I have 20 channels I follow. I would like to be able to create a folder and let's say I call it Art. I want to be able to place all the art channels I follow into that folder. Then I create gaming (or specififc game like valorant) folder and I want to be able to place gaming channels into that folder. the sidebar is jarring to scroll through when you follow many many channels and a lot of streamers are streaming at the same time. I want to be able to go through my followed channels through categories. So i think folder creation like on discord would be amazing to have.

I am one of many people that follow well over a hundred streamers, and there are few that I like more than others. Rather than facing the small inconvenience of scrolling down to see a streamer that I want to watch, we can potentially implement a "favourite" feature that will bring that broadcaster on the top of our following page despite viewership !

YES!!! Please add this! It could make it so much easier to organize all the streamers I follow. I was going to submit this suggestion myself but it's already here.

Please add and allow the ability to put users you follow into groups. Like a folder/group. So that when you see on the left, Followed Channels, or if you go to the channels you follow, you can easily see them grouped up in folders/groups.
IE one example would be: Path of Exile streamers, you could label POE and put followed channels into that group.

While you can see what game people are playing at the moment of course. Certain players main certain games. And so if you follow a bunch of people and see a bunch of people live. It would be nice to be able to pull up and see certain groups of users you follow, from certain communities/games.

Almost everything else out there has the ability to put things into groups/folders. It would just be a really nice feature.
