Linux Tag

Support for games on Linux can be inconsistent, and it's really helpful to be able to see how well a game runs on the OS when making purchasing decisions. A way to easily find other people streaming on Linux would be a boon.

Hey all!

The Linux tag is now live on Twitch!

Thank you so much for this feedback and please let us know if there are other tags you would like to see live on the site!

This would be a good addition considering the support for Linux in general is increasing and more and more games work out of the box either natively, or through Valve’s Proton compatibility layer.

This would be great, and seems like a pretty reasonable ask.

This would be cool, both for gamers and for people streaming development stuff.

Good idea. I have streamed on Twitch using Linux before (my Two Point Hospital streams were done using the Linux native version of the game).

This seems obvious to me, which makes me think Twitch won't agree to it.

I have very little faith in Twitch these days.

Would like to see some linux focused tags (linux, linux_gaming, pop_os, ubuntu)
Would like to see some display tags (ultrawide, $resolution((1920x1080, 2560x1440, etc)))
