edit2: LMFAO pathetic, Twitch... got shadowbanned in the whole platform for this comment I made 🤣🤣🤣

This is 6 years old and hasn't been implemented yet, Twitch? ffs... then add a "block amouranth" option at least.

(edit: despite not having the old option to hide/block recommendations, turns out you can get the same result with the more cumbersome method of adding the streamer to your blocked list of users... you can do that by going in Settings -> Security and Privacy -> Privacy section and click the "Show Blocked Users" link.

As stated multiple times, We don't want to see those random streams as soon as i open your page. give us the option to OPT out of them so we at least don't have to make a fake report saying why we want to block them. this also applies to streams in general. If there is someone who i don't want to watch let us chose a not interested button FOR EVERY STREAMER.

need the option to block a channel from recommended on the https://www.twitch.tv/directory/following page

I agree. If I am not interested in a channel, I don't want to pass over it over and over again.

Allowing users to Block certain creators from appearing on their page so that users don't have to continue watching known pedophiles, abusers, etc. show up repeatedly on main page and recommendations. Too many accused abusers and bigots run rampant and unchecked on this platform, and allowing users to personally block these users can at least begin to offer some sort of censorship from them that Twitch itself won't do because they continue to make the platform money or their accusations are argued or whatever excuse is used to keep them on the platform.

I don't have a issue with the hot tub streams, but I do agree with a lot of these people that a block or mute feature would be helpful. There's a lot of streamers who are complete **** bags who I often forget about, and only remember when I check out their stream by accident and see that they're still a ****. I'd like the ability to just hide them

I want to HIDE Amouranth from my feed. JUST give me that button!!!

I understand that this brings quite a lot of money to Twitch, but I would like to hide from my eyes this huge number of women with low social responsibility who pretend to be cute streamers!

Right now I have to report them, to block them. So I have to just report and post in the comments "Not really a violation, but I want to block them from my feed".
That's dumb. It's a waste of my time, to do something that should require one click. And it's a waste of Twitch's time going through reports that are not necessary, because I am only reporting, so I can block them. So this is stupid. Let's change it.

@TamerUK_ I for one really don't give a rat's *** about some bimbo sitting in a kiddy pool. I also don't need her to message me and I don't want to message her. BLOCKING is perfectly fine.

I don't think block is the correct term I would use, blocking a streamer/viewer is one thing, that stops all engagement outright which is a perfectly acceptable option, hiding their channel from your visibility is another thing entirely.

There should be an option much like twitter has to mute a person/channel, so they only show in listings or searches when you specifically look for them.

This would allow a user to differentiate between not wanting to see their channel, and not engaging with that person at all. However the idea in general is a good one so I voted.

PLEASE bring back this feature; I'm tired of seeing half naked girls in my recommended list. It's highly inappropriate.

First there were ASMR channels clogging the 'Just Chatting' category, now we got half naked girls sitting in a pool riding bananas and changing into different bikini every hour. How is this appropriate content for a service like Twitch? Blocking feature needs to be a thing asap. We need to be able to block content we do not wanna see in our feed. This doesn't have to be an entire category blocking, just a single user blocking feature.

Like every comment includes something about Amouranth. If you don't think she is a problem. You don't read these comments.

Allow me to BLOCK channels I don't want to see. I'm sick to death of hitting the front page to be automatically shown streamers I dont like. Sacriel seems to be there every day yet I don't want to be exposed to certain creators content such as him.

Hi Twitch,

I'm QA and i do quite often work with ideas of improvements. So i use twitch for 8-9 years (or something like this) and i'm not a fan of how Just Chatting category is looking right now. You do receive feedbacks "we don't want to see hottubs and etc. :), so maybe you should add a button to hide particular channel from my lists of channel. I don't want to block them, i just don't want to see them. So in this case everyone will be able to create "their own" twitch.

"Why just don't block the channel you don't want to see?" - because blocking someone means that he is absolutely innapropriate for my "twitch world". In case of hiding the channel (to Hiden folder) it makes possible for me to customize my twitch experience to my personal purposes/preferences.

Also it should help to filter the content for kids if i am a parent. I can surf for homepage and just hide all the channels that i think would be innapropriate for my child.

Just look at this as sandbox. Give the power to the viewer to hide the content which he does not want to see without any offense to streamers.

P.S. There are a lot of details and ideas of how it can be done.

how much more time has to pass

I am missing this, too.

as much as I hide and block booby's streamers they keep appearing, seems like the ai system cant catchup, I know must of booby's streamer are partners and even if they kil someone in stream they won't get banned but still I don't wanna see em, it becomes so frustrating seeing a content creator neck to neck with simps creators, I always rechecking if I'm in twitch or in twitchhub
