Trans tag request It is hard enough finding trans representation in our daily lives. With the LGBTQIA+ tag, one still needs to browse through channels and spend time in them to find trans streamers. A "trans" tag would help people searching for these communities.
12,417 votesToday we are rolling out 350+ tags, including the transgender tag, to provide you with more options on how you express yourself and your content, so that you can more easily connect with one another and build wonderful communities. We are really appreciative for all of the feedback around this topic (and other related suggestions).
We previously told you that we had a better solution to this request than adding the tag, and we were wrong. This has been one of the most popular requests we’ve heard, and the simple truth is that we should have done this sooner. In an effort to think carefully about how to best address this, we only made the situation more difficult. Again, thank you for helping us throughout this process in reevaluating our stance.
Please continue to share ideas and feedback you have to UserVoice, as well as any suggestions for additional tags…

No-Hit Tag Hey everyone!
I would like to request a No-Hit tag that will help creators and viewers find other no-hitters within the community.
For context, No-Hit runs consist of finishing a game without being hit once during the entire gameplay. I have noticed that there are several “speed run” tags, but none for this type of gameplay and this could be a great way to discover new creators and game modes.
At a personal level, I also host a No-Hit weekly talk show called “Informe No-Hit” that features the best runs of the week and a yearly No-Hit tournament that features…

Thank you so much for the passion on this post. This has been one of our fastest growing UserVoice posts ever.
We have gone ahead and added a ‘No-Hit’ tag to Twitch for use on your streams or for you to filter by to find new streams!
Thank you again for this feedback and please let us know about any other tags you would like to see added to the site.

Virtual Avatar Tag for Vstreamers/Vtubers The rise of the VR industry and the relatively new phenomenon of Virtual Streamers and Virtual Youtubers has made impact on sites like Twitch as well. There is a very large (800+ and growing) community of streamers on twitch who use a virtual avatar combined with face tracking software to use instead of webcams. VR is already a tag, but it would be nice to distinguish this category for those who use avatars and may play the role of a character. (like HoloLive, for example) It's not much different than having Anime as a tag, for example.
Thank you very…
2,152 votesHeyGuys!
Super excited to share that we now have a “Vtuber” tag on Twitch!
In the past I had posted on how tags were aimed at the stream and not the streamer, but we have changed our thinking on this as of today and added more than 350 new tags, including this one.
Changes like this are possible because of feedback and threads like this so I just wanted to say thank you again for sharing feedback with us.

ironmon tag ironMON is a new Pokemon challenge that has been gaining a lot of popularity on Twitch over the past year. You can now find dozens of streamers at any given moment streaming attempts of the challenge across all Pokemon game categories, with Fire Red/Leaf Green currently being the most popular. A tag to help with discoverability would be a great addition and would be widely used by the ironMON community
1,893 votesHey all!
Great news! The IronMON tag is now live on Twitch for all your stream challenge needs!
Thank you so much for your feedback on this, this might be one of our fastest growing tag ideas of 2022! As always if there are other tags you would like to see added please feel free to make an idea so the community can vote on it.

Black tag The black community has always deserved representation in every single space that we exist in. There are content creators who feel invalidated because we are unable to find other members of the black community on Twitch, especially during a time that we need to stand as one. The black community deserves representation, validation and acknowledgment. We deserve a black tag so that we can find, communicate and uplift each other.
Please create the black tag.

We have heard your feedback and are really excited to announce that we now have a Black tag on Twitch, along with more than 350 other new tags.

Linux Tag Support for games on Linux can be inconsistent, and it's really helpful to be able to see how well a game runs on the OS when making purchasing decisions. A way to easily find other people streaming on Linux would be a boon.

Disabled tag request Disabled gamers often face more or different hardships than abled streamers do. There are so many amazing users on Twitch who are disabled, and they deserve a "disabled" tag. Disabled streamers need a way to find each other and weave our communities together, and disabled viewers need a way to find streamers they want to watch and connect with.
1,158 votesHey All!
We’re really excited to share that not only have we added a “Disabled” tag, but we have also added more than 350 other tags to Twitch. If you feel we missed anything pertinent, please let us know.

Add a Godot Engine tag There is already a tag for Unity and for Unreal Engine but none for Godot. Godot Engine is an open-source engine that is growing a lot in popularity. This would help viewers find streams that relate to this engine.

Consider Flow Arts "Flow Arts": As the current world condition has taken us from previous live festivals and performance, many Flow Artists and Dancers are turning to virtual and broadcasted live performances of their talents. Traditionally, we as dancers, hula-hoop performers, jugglers, poi spinners and other similar disciplines, have had to gravitate towards the "Music & Performance Art" category. (With no specific tag identifying us as with Flow Artists, nor dancers). Now that Twitch has adjusted back to "Music" as the original category, we have migrated to "just chatting"; it doesn't really identify our community at all, among others that actually do feature…

Add a co-working tag! The number of study/co-working streamers has increased dramatically over the last few months and co-working is likely to become a very popular niche on twitch! Many people now work or study from home and the co-working community is a very welcoming and friendly place. Please add a tag so we can identify ourselves and make it easier for like-minded people to find us!
Thank you

Stationery Stream Tags I stream "stationery" streams in the Makers & Crafting section. This includes things like showing how I write and decorate my journal, explain what makes a new fountain pen special, or set up my bullet journal for the new month. I'd love to see tags added for myself and others to make that content type stand out.
These tags could include "Stationery," "Journaling," and "Planning." I know others in the community are interested in streaming stationery on Twitch, and I think this would help us build more of a community.
465 votesHey all!
Thanks so much for the feedback on adding these tags. I'm happy to share that we now have 'journaling', 'planning', and 'stationery' all as their own tags on Twitch now.

Vegan tag Would love to see a vegan tag so that we can connect with other vegan streamers, build our community and promote education and advocacy.
It is always very exciting to find another vegan streamer in the wild. But it's very hard for us to reach each other on twitch as there are no community features that accommodate this. With plant-based nutrition becoming a growing market and the vegan movement getting larger day by day, I think that it would be nice for us to have a tag to further build that community.329 votesHey all!

Alcohol-free/sobriety There are many streamers who will drink on stream, talk about drinking on stream, or just generally talk about alcohol, which could be uncomfortable for others for many reasons. Would be awesome to be able to tag yourself as an alcohol-free or sober stream

StarCraft playable race tags The RTS games, StarCraft & StarCraft 2 feature 3 playable races: Zerg, Protoss, and Terran.
Currently, there's no great way to filter the starcraft categories for streamers playing a particular race.
The new tag system including every league of legends champion as a tag sets a precedent for this change and would improve viewing experience and discoverability.
259 votesHey there!
Super excited to let you guys know that Terran, Protoss, and Zerg are tags that have all been added to Twitch.

Sound Bath Tag and Meditation Tag Hello!
Myself and many other creators are streaming and creating sound baths in a few different categories and it would be great if people could find us and we could find each other, there have been many other generes of music added and sound baths would be great.
Also to accompany this I suggest a meditation tag as there are many communities hosting meditation sessions and guided meditation sessions with and without sound baths.Many Thanks

Excited to share that now we have both Sound Bath and Meditation as tags live on Twitch!

Change the "Autism" community tag to "Autistic" The newly added "autism" tag from Twitch differs majorly from other community tags. Instead of focusing on people from the community specifically (such as the Blind, d/Deaf, Disabled, and many other tags), the tag calls on a "broad" autism community. The tag as it currently is will very likely result in usage by family members, friends, allies, and professionals in the autism world and end up minimizing actually autistic voices. In order to full uplift autistic voices, please change this tag to "autistic" or at least add an additional autistic tag.

Just wanted to let you all know that we now have an autistic tag along with our already added autism tag.
