Add additional ways to sort for you / followed channels list.
Add additional ways to sort, current live channels that I follow list. Currently I believe we have only two ways to sort: Recommended, and highest viewers to lowest. I would like to propose that we have a few more options or a way to place into category folders or at very least, sort by lowest viewers to highest. This would help pave the way to give back to the Twitch community and provide less discouragement to those just starting out with content creation. I know from personal experience it was tough just trying to get noticed. Now that I made affiliate, I enjoy bringing a smile to someone's face when they go from having maybe just 1 viewer to a raid of say 20 or so.
Then again on the other side of the house having folders that we can set or even just like a super favorites, followers folders, would be amazing. Yes, we can just click a category but there are so many at times searching those can be too long of a process and may as well just do a search, if you can remember their name, plus some people after a while might do a re-brand then you would not know their twitch name. So by having folders I could create folders like: Live bass, Vocals, rocksmith users. I also belong to a lot of streamer support communities so I could have folders setup display each of those and drop the members of each in those folders. Making it easier when I am returning support to those communities.
To me, adding this feature would make the user twitch experience seem more personal and tailored to our needs. Thank you

I agree! Another option could be to sort by "time watched" or something like that. There are a few channels I moderate for but I have to search their name just to get to the channel. It would help mods especially, but it could also help for streamers who have followed a smaller channel to quickly find them. Having the option of sorting by "Viewers: High to Low" is great but why can't we reverse that option too? Helping out the smaller streamers and everyone benefits!

This really, REALLY needs to be implemented. This would restore my faith in the idea that Twitch is most interested in what I want to watch, rather than forcing me to watch what any sort of clever site programmed algorithms suggest. Also it would let me find my smaller communities that I definitely follow but watch very infrequently (some cooking and hobby channels come to mind; I tend to only watch when engaging in those activities myself simultaneously). Thanks guys.
