Don’t arbitrarily exclude channels from “Browse.”
At some point, I noticed a dramatic decline in the number of live channels in a certain game category under “Browse” despite my not using any tags. I thought it was very strange as it was and has always been one of the most viewed categories on Twitch. Just before, I had noticed that one of my followed channels was live. The channel is small and I should have found it when I sorted by “viewers (low to high),” but I didn’t. Please do not randomly exclude channels from the “Browse” tab. If users feel overwhelmed by the number of channels, they can always put tags themselves to narrow the search. This both hurts the discoverability of small streamers and reduces the number of streams for viewers to choose from.
