Persistent "Go Live" Notifications - Send to "My Notifications"
"Go Live" notifications only briefly appear in a small corner of the browser window on PC. This is grossly ineffective, since they're easy to miss. Twitch PC browser users then often miss a significant portion of a stream, since their online followed channels list doesn't refresh right away.
(I tend to just skip watching the stream and taking a break from Twitch when this happens, while other users submit complaints that their notifications aren't working.)
There needs to be a setting to make "Go Live" notifications persistent in the PC browser window in "My Notifications" until the user has clicked on it. This would be similar to the persistent notifications which show up after earning a Twitch drop, being gifted a subscription to a channel, or having a channel subscription expire. Setting up "Go Live" stream notifications like this would make them much more effective for PC browser users.

Also, when web browser Twitch users do see the notification pop up in the corner of their screen, if they aren't fast enough in clicking on it, the notification vanishes and they have to refresh their browser and go digging to the bottom of their online followed channels list in order to locate and click on the channel that was in the notification.
