remove not fitting tags / warning message It's really annoying when I try to add tags that obviously would fit to the game but twitch has predetermined ones for each game.
Even if you try to add an "open world" tag to a pretty obvious open world game twitch doesn't accept it. Instead the "Done" button transforms into a greyed out "Updating..." button and the window doesn't close.
Why can I even add these tags if twitch refuses to use the anyway?
Either the tags should be in the list at all depending on what game you choose or at least a warning message should pop up…

Tags for channel/community The ability to set tags for a channel, or community, which are permanent until manually changed, and separate from the tags for a stream. With the new influx of tags for identity or community description, it's difficult for people to describe both their community, and their content. Additionally, the community tags would be something that would be the same for EVERY stream for most people, and would give viewers an idea of what a channel is about, even when they are offline, thereby helping people find communities that they can relate to and make it easier on streamers who want…

API Support for Custom Tags Currently, there is no way to use the Helix API to inspect the custom tags of a given stream. Previously, with the preset tag list, the Get-Streams endpoint (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-streams) would include an array of tag_ids, which could then be inspected to filter streams automatically. This is still included in responses, and still contains the language tag, but doesn't include any information on custom tags.
This is an issue because bots which previously relied upon the pre-set tag list to filter streams can no longer use tag information at all, because they cannot see custom tags in any way.

Implement tag search and popularity when selecting custom tags Trying to decide which variation on a tag to use can be guesswork in the current system. When entering a tag, the function should show similar tags in use and indicate in some way which tags are popularly used and/or searched, such as number of live streams with the tag. Platforms such as Twitter have a similar feature when entering a hashtag.

Add old tags to search and option to use wildcards It would be great if the search tags option had the "old" tags that have been updated for the new system still there and searchable via autocomplete. As it stands, there are no searchable tags by autocomplete (i.e. you have to input any tags manually to search for them). Also, the ability to use wildcards or the ability for the search to be inclusive of letters after what you've searched for would be great. As an odd example, if you searched for the "app" tag, the "apple" tag would also pop up.

Saved tags A feature that lets u save tag clusters. For example, i play 3 different games and stream and i have to manually write all the tags that are relevant but if i change game then i have to do the whole process all over again but if i could save those specific tags as 'Tags save #1' or 'tags for so-and-so game', it would lessen time in preparing monumentally.

Prevent Incorrect Spelling of Tags (and auto-complete suggestions) I've noticed that a significant number of creators are using the incorrect spelling of "Australian" in their tags, with many streamers mistakenly having it as "Austrailan."
Twitch should ensure that incorrect spellings aren't offered as auto-complete suggestions when adding new tags. I'm assuming many streamers have been offered the incorrect spelling version as an auto-complete.
This issue makes it harder for viewers to find streamers, as they get split between correctly and incorrectly spelled tags.
One suggestion could be at the time of adding tags, dictionary words could appear in Green, and other custom tags just appear as grey.

DisabilityAwareness "DisabilityAwareness" should be a usable tag. It signifies the channel shows a particular importance for issues and topics regarding people with disabilities. As it stands, Twitch doesn't allow its use due to some automatic moderation. Why is DisabilityAwareness moderated out? Could this be fixed?
Thank you.
3 votesWhere is this moderated out? When testing this, I was able to add the tag to my stream info. Please let me know. Thanks.

Show all tags when searching channels under a category Whenever a person searches a category such as music, a game title, or whatever, one is presented with a list of Twitch streamers that are currently streaming under said category the viewer has chosen to search through.
Currently one is unable to view all the tags that are associated with a channel under a category one is search for unless selecting each streamer individually to view all of their assigned tags.
I would like the option under one's own account settings to enable all tags to be shown after selecting a category rather than having to individually view a streamer's…

Allow % Sign in Tags With the new tag system we lost special characters in tag names, most importantly the % sign. 100% is a very common stream tag, and for speedrunners many speedrunning categories also use the % sign (e.g. Any%, Low%) and it would be great if we could tag things properly. Right now we have to choose between a couple different unusual variations to get these (100, 100Percent, HundredPercent, Hundo, etc) which limits discoverability, especially since we can only have 10 tags.

A identity, sexuality system could help fix the issue that I need 5 tags just for sexuality or I miss someone searching a different spelling The LGBTQ community uses a number of short forms that all mean the same thing like LGBTQ LGBTQ+ LGBTQIA and so on the system reads each of these searches as different tags.
The new tag system is great but I have to use 5 tags one for bisexual and 4 for spelling variation on LGBTQ or I miss anyone who's searching a different spelling.
My solution on your profile allow you to set these commonly used types of tags. Gender, Sexuality, Pronouns, Ethnicity.
These are tags I see alot that get reused every stream and take up slots that could…

I would like to see the category of games that are no longer in service be reinstated. Overwatch 2 has started and the old Overwatch tags have disappeared from Twitch, so I can't search for past Overwatch clips in the clip manager.

sexism and racism why is "white" and "straight" not allowed as a stream tag? i feel that there is no issue with these terms and this is twitch actively being discriminatory towards people with these attributes. why also is "i hate men" allowed and "i hate women" not? this is backwards logic when you parade "inclusivity" for all who are not white, straight and male, what did they do to you? can we have a platform that is unbiased when it comes to politics and be inclusive for all and not just everyone who is progressive?

Remove Schizophrenia and Autism as stream tags. Remove Schizophrenia as a stream tag.
Use it properly or not at all.
Mental health tags are routinely misused on this platform to the point of novelty.
For that matter remove Autism.
I am mentally exhausted and I am physically sick of reporting streamers who turn the mental illnesses of me and my family into marginalizing jokes on this platform only to see absolutely nothing happen even after months of waiting.
You do not “promote awareness” of mental illnesses by allowing any idiot with a computer and without a diagnosis to use our disabilities and misrepresent us for their own…

Suggested/Recommended Tags based on Stream Title With the ever growing amount of tags (thank you!), it can be difficult to keep up with new additions and find the most applicable tags.
In order to help creators/editors utilize the most relevant tags, it would be very helpful if the initial list that is populated when searching for tags is recommended based off of the Stream Title - since many may not be aware of all of the tags that are available.
An example title of "Celebrating 1 Year on Twitch" would show Anniversary, Hyped, and Chatty tags first in the list - without having to type anything…
