please god its so obnoxious

Can you please add a setting to not have some random stream automatically start playing the moment I come to the website? It is so annoying to be blasted with random ******** that I never asked for. I'm just trying to sign in and go look at my following page and that cannot, under any circumstances, be done without first hearing "And noobslayer26 gets him from behind with the epic headshot!". I just don't want it. I want the ability to have absolutely anything else as my welcome page. Thank you.

It's literally wasting their bandwidth and annoying their users. How is this still a thing? Auto-play needs to GTFO! Auto-muting needs to GTFO!

I log onto Twitch, and the first thing I get is a blaring rant from a user broadcasting a video I did not search for, look for, request, or even press "play" for. If this is an ad for your own video content, please allow people to search, and not get hit by your "most watched" list. I don't want to be a part of a demographic when I'm trying to create content of my own.

The problem lies in who's ads you put up as well. I'm not really willing to work hard putting together green energy program ideas and simulations online if my content gets put before a big oil industry ad put on by a rejected NRA CEO.

If I have to rush to stop a loud playing video, I'd hate to see what a newly paralyzed person has to do to get the volume turned down and the video stopped. (I'm one who likes to err on the side of being polite, and not shove a sales pitch down someone's throat attached to a most watched video stream.)

I'd like to see that my ad dollars go towards companies that have an active interest in supporting the disabled members of the public.

Thank you.

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.

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

where is the toggle to disable the **** auto play on the home page? I do not give a **** about any of the edm you keep cramming down my ears when i go to twitch. why you auto play i do not know. waste your own bandwidth not mine.

if only they would listen..

This was suggested 3 years ago, why hasn't this been addressed with at least some kind of setting?

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

OR give options for those who don't want it to turn it off

improve Video Performance/Quality of Service?

shared this idea

turn off the ******* autoplay.

improve Video Performance/Quality of Service?

God yes. This please. Every time I got to Twitch homescreen I'm bombarded by **** DJs playing club music. I've got those categories as 'not interested' for a reason. If it can't be removed (for some god-awful reason), at least make it adhere to the persons category preferences.

EDIT - Fortunately I figured out how to block the entire carousel element that has the featured channels that autoplay at the top of the homepage with Ublock Origin. Still, having a built in way to remove this stupid 'feature' is a must.
