This adds a somewhat temporary filter; so it also helps streamers benefit as they'd receive more views if they change them actively. It's obviously a better choice than outright blocking a channel or category.

it's so obvious, why should we even ask for it?

+1, 99% of the content on this site is complete garbage

I would the ability to block certain tags so streams using those tags don’t show up for me. Everyone has different preferences—streamers can stream whatever content they want within the confines of Twitch’s ToS, but viewers should be able to further refine what is recommended to them. Especially when content creators don’t consistently use the proper warnings (sexual content, drug/alcohol use, gambling), so even if you have these filters from Twitch applied to hide or blur content, the platform can’t even screen the streams out properly because streamers use tags to gain viewers regardless of whether they truly disclose the nature of their stream content to Twitch.

When I block a channel, which is insanely difficult in today's UI, the channel continues to show on the homepage of Twitch.
I should also be able to block specific tags. I'm not interested in the **** and degeneracy that's all over the platform.

Lemme block "vtubers" and "lgbtyadayada+-=".
I already have 100+ vtubers blacklisted on my profile.
Stop putting them on my front page! LET ME BLOCK THE ENTIRE TAG, FOR GOD SAKE!!!!

Theres an option to block category but still im getting reccomendations of those games on my sidebar under certain streamers page "viewers also watch". My selections should filter those reccomendations aswell, if i dont want to see certain streamer theres a reason if i say im not interested on certain streamers, games etc. For example i select i dont want to see Resident Evil game or whatever and then i still see the games streams under "smaller communities" or "speedruns" and under "streamers also watch" like i mentioned before even though i have so called blocked the game in my eyes already. Why? Why twitch still forces you those channels even though i have made my decision. If i want to undo my selections of interested streams i know from where to do it, twitch shoudlnt remind me of anything than im ONLY interested at. And why there isnt an option to "show only streams of **** game" simple thing to add, since im only interested in 1 game actually but still im forced to see other games i dont care about. I like to select only World of Tanks game and see nothing else. Why isnt this a thing? We are the "customers" of twitch and we should have the SOLE right to decide what we want to see and what not! Fix it once and for all.

Yes. Let me block all Vtubers please. 3/5 streamers are vtubers now and they all look and sound like dog water. I would prefer to watch people, if I wanna watch cartoons I'll turn on the TV.

there is a google chrome extension called "unwanted twitch" that allows you to block tags along with channels and titles
i've been using it for about a month and so far its worked flawlessly

So, I got tired of waiting for this to happen, and I just made my own tool. You can sort by multiple tags, exclude tags you don't want, and filter by viewer count and lots of other things. The UI is pretty basic at the moment, but I'm improving it all the time! It's at https://www.stream-scanner.com

We can block category but not tags? That is a bit weird! We should be able to customize our experience! I don't want to see horror stuff where any channel that has a tag "horror" is blocked. There are other tags too that I also want to block like this but you get the idea. I'm in support of being able to block specific tags, not just game categories. Sure we can chose "not interested" individually per stream but you cannot do that when a tag has 1000 or so streams going. Also, if a streamer newly streams under the tag, you'd be presented with said stream still.

If I don't want "horror" tagged stuff, why do I even have to have it on my recommended feed? Additionally, why do I have to have it in my "all channels" feed? If no means no, obviously it means no.

Do not want to see any VTuber anymore and being able to block tag will be very helpful.

Yes I was about to post this also. I don't personally mind whatever is allowed on the website but since we have tags I thought it would be good if we have the option on our personal profiles to select certain ones we don't wanna see at all.

Given the recent ToS changes, having the ability to block Sexual Themed tagged streams from recommendations would be nice

Please do this! I would love to block every Furry, Femboy, Tranny, lgb and more streams!

Would love to block Furry and Vtuber tags

I would very much like to block religious tags.

Any update?

Can I block channels based on tags or stream titles?

Please add this, everyone has things they don't want to see, don't want recommendations for, and don't want open and making noise as soon as I open the app. I'll never watch asmr, vtubers, or hot tub streams and idk why thats over half my recommendations no matter how many I block individually!
