(thinking…)

stop the autoplaying video on the front page

Serious either disable or give me the option to disable autoplay on the front page and anywhere else you have autoplay.

    Yes please! This is so annoying ... and the channels are never something that I'd watch myself, it's totally unrelated. Recommended channels and "X's viewers also watch" are what is useful

    I would love if it would stop autoplaying because I can't even count the amount of times I've gone to twitch.tv at 2 AM and got the worst jumpscare of my life because some european DJ is bass boosting his zelda remix on the front page

    How about listening to what your users have said countless times for 4 years and let us disable video autoplay without 3rd party plugins? Currently over 500 votes on the top proposal.

    Either let people disable or autoplay for the carousel or stop showing streamers or streams from categories the user has said they're not interested in.

    This is already available in the BTTV (Better Twitch TV) browser extension.

    Twitch recently came out in a video saying you can send feedback to stop recommending things. There is no selection for this autoplay carousel. I don't care about anything in it.

    Nearly 4 years later and I still have to rip my headphones off my head when I go to twitch main page and there's some live stream of heavy metal promoted

    Now you get auto play on entering the twitch.tv. Now when there are music streams and you have headsets on, the music is very very load. It's very unexpected and unpleasant.

    YES!!! Please give the option to disable autoplay. It super slows down loading the page when connecting or wifi is bad.

  • RedSnt commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Easily fixed by installing 3rd party tools, but after Amazon bought Twitch they've become pretty hostile towards 3rd party stuff.

    I hate the home page auto play so much I won’t ever go to it! Please add an option to turn it off. Some of us will never play these streams from there
