"Coworking and Study" Category

Last year, you all implemented a "coworking" tag for WFH, study, and remote working streams.

All of us in the coworking community really appreciated the tag! It helped users and viewers find streamers to study alongside, especially in a time when everyone was working from home. Even now, a year and a half out from the tag introduction, many users are still working from home, looking for coworking streams to pass the time and find company in.

Unfortunately, the addition of custom tags—while innovative and helpful for many streamers generally—has presented a problem for the coworking community. It's no longer easy for coworking streamers to use their designated tag to aid discoverability.

There are, after all, SO MANY iterations of "coworking" that could be used: "coworking," "co working," "study," "WFH," "costudy," "working," "studying," working...." and the list goes on.

This lack of clarity has effectively nullified the benefits that the designated "coworking" tag gave us back in early 2021, muddying the waters and hampering discoverability for coworking streamers.

ALL THAT SAID, now that custom tags have been introduced and the discoverability environment has changed for us, it would be incredible to get a designated "Coworking and Studying" category for coworking streamers to live in. Not only would it help viewers find us, it would also help us discover other new coworking streamers much easier—especially when not many know how to use the tag system efficiently.

Thanks so much for considering!

    We need a study category on Twitch!
    It is often difficult to find new study channels because of this.
  • beaavg commented  ·   ·  Report

    This category is very necessary. There are many of us who use Twitch to study.

    I started leading my own Coworking stream around a month ago now, and it has already grown so much, and been one of the best things I've done.

    I'm now looking to connect with other Coworking streamers, and this would be much easier if it had it's own category.

    Coworking is also already a rich and quickly growing community of great people, who all deserve their own category to connect in :)

    I hope Twitch makes this small change!

    As a student, it's nice to be able to do schoolwork while hanging out with/ chat. a coworking/study category would help

  • loreoflala commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be amazing because “Just Chatting” does not encapsulate Co-Working streams and some of us don’t be chatty during Co-Working streams anyways ~ Give us a co-working category please please please! ;—;

    As a neurodivergent creator, co-working streams have provided sorely needed structure and consistency for me, as I don’t have a consistent support system outside of it.

    Making this an official category would broaden Twitch’s horizons to add accessibility to many of its backbone community. The body doubling is insanely helpful, help make it legit!
  • JonathanWhispers commented  ·   ·  Report

    Just echoing what others have said in support. Almost every co-working stream I’ve found has either been through raids, recommendations from similar streamers, or messy inconsistent tagging. It would be so helpful for discovery if this was a dedicated category. Just Chatting feels inaccurate because most co-working or study streams only chat during breaks between pomodoros (which I like) and the purpose behind these streams is very intentional. The community already exists on Twitch as evidenced by the upvotes and comments on this — it’s just tricky to find currently. Thanks for considering the co-working communities for inclusion!

    I believe Coworking became a category as of today. I saw the option earlier
  • littlesiha commented  ·   ·  Report

    YES PLEASE I would use this weekly if we had it!!
  • bardandbutter commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be helpful for viewers and streamers alike! Especially when “Just Chatting” is such a wild card category.

  • BellaLessai commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would love a Co-working category! I've started doing co-working streams and it felt so awkward being in Just Chatting when I am in actuality doing Pomodoros. Having a category would assist in helping with discoverability for a very niche category that has a growing demand.
  • TJBASC commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please I would love this!!
  • MaysiesNook commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is a great idea! Most of my time is spent in the co-working community! It would also help many looking for these types of spaces/communities.
  • duckiidoo commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please make this an category, I support! I wonder how come Twitch still ignores this :/

  • eforficatus commented  ·   ·  Report

    I only use Twitch for Coworking. I would really like to see this become a proper category.

  • xangrykidx commented  ·   ·  Report

    How is this still an open item? Twitch - this is an easy item that obviously has a massive interest. Why is there such a delay in getting this created?
