Stream title searching
"The v5 endpoint searched for the channel title and category. Use “Search Channels” to match channel name or title." on https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/migration is wrong because the new API does not matches the title! There is no replacement for title searching!

Still waiting for that. 4 years waiting for a feature that was already available in the old version.
The only solution is to query all streams => Massive waste of twitch resources and then string search for the title. Thats what I'm doing now. Luckily I only have to request all streams from a particular game id.

You can query all stream in 60/90 query depending on the time and make a cache, this is how I do it right now on a serverless app, in each query you can fetch 100 streams and it rare to have more than 90k stream in English

Having the ability to search by title is hugely important, and there's really no alternative.

I need this functionality back because there is no alternative to search channels by title on for example a frontend. We can´t simply query all channels because that would result in more than 100 Requests for the User. (Serverless project)

Having this ability back would be greatly appreciated for multiple Applications that make heavy use of this feature.
