Twitch staff is obviously having a great laugh at their users' expense. They know very well that we don't want the carousel, but they purposely continue to evolve it to be ever more intrusive.

It's always incredibly frustrating when any website starts playing a video the user didn't ask for, and even worse when there's no way to stop it. Please stop.

Edit: Oh my god it's worse, muting the random autoplayed channel KEEPS the page muted after you click the channel you actually want to watch? Why??

5 years and it's still there. Twich doesn't give two shts about user experience.

bro i keep getting asmr nasty on my front page now, great job twitch, u got the *****

So much this. Meanwhile, people using Firefox can revoke autoplay permission to Twitch.tv and use AdBlock/uBlock Origin to get rid of the carousel.

This is still an issue. The last thing I want when loading a webpage is to have some random Norwegian DJ blasting music through my speakers.

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

bump.

There are sometimes very loud streams that autoplay audio and murder my ears

pls at least let me remove the categories/games i'm not even interested from the feartured page. I'm sick and tired of seeing featured streams of people playing fortnite, fifa and genshin as i dont wanna even give them any views

Wondering if there are any updates on this or if it was seen or discarded or... anything really at this point...

up

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.

This please, it's extremely annoying.

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.

When you go on twitch.tv you are automatically blasted by loud music for no reason because of auto play from a live stream you didnt click.

Muy buena la app

Remove the homepage video/stream playing.

Please add an option to not have a random video playing in the homepage when accessing twitch (the top carousel of 4-5 channels that automatically play when accessing twitch.tv). I shouldn't be forced to bookmark whatever subpage, and maybe I feel like just browsing the different games/categories. It's annoying to have random streams that I have nothing to do with and even profously dislike start playing when I access twitch.tv. It makes me not want to use twitch and it definitely makes me really not want to view / listen to the stream that's up there. There has never ever ever been one single stream of content that I actually enjoy or watch, add an individual option to not have that, please.

In the front and center of the discovery wheel, was a channel (won't name names) listening to music with profanity that was also being mass viewed against liscensing. Not to say that the world needs more policing, but at the same time, more effort should be put towards filtering of front page content. Discovery is all well and good, but it seems less than desirable to shove *** and profanity into user's faces, even if it is just audio.
