Add multiple sign language tags
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.
Hello! Happy to announce that you can now add custom tags to your streams, for a total of ten tags. Custom tags allow you to describe your stream in your own words. For more information, check out our blog post: https://blog.twitch.tv/2022/08/01/custom-tags-discovery-on-your-terms/
Thank you for the suggestion!
