Simple put, this system is poorly designed and problematic. What it creates is a system where only the larger creators will see any amount of money, due to how low of value a single bit is. The creator you show on the help page only gets 5 bucks. My problem with this feature is that it doesn't address any of the problems with regular bits, and allows for even easier abuse of the system, unless you have extra stuff in place to decide who's vote counts for bits, will mean that people could bot their stream and get a ton of extra bits from a vote. This will mean streamers who usually have only a few viewers will never see any income from bits that people get from free. I'll admit, I use my ad bits to give them to streamers who I like who usually don't get a whole lot of viewers on average. Bits are already a flawed system that people don't really use because only a portion of the money is given to a streamer, as you take a cut of it, using a donation link in someone's subscription is better than buying bits, and that's the underlying problem with this system. Please revert back to the old system of ads, and fix its problems, instead of implementing a system that will only benefit large creators.

Content obtrusive ads are bad for live form content. They work for YouTube and Television where the content can be put on a break until the advertisement is done, however for Twitch the ads will often block important content especially when first joining a stream.

1. Pre-roll ads need to use unobtrusive forms of advertisement. Since pre-roll ads are the only ads forced to run without authorization from the streamer, they are the ads that most likely will directly affect viewing content the streamer does not want you to miss. As a result these ads will discourage viewers from watching, especially when having to click through streamers to see exactly what is going on with their content.

2. The pop out window for the stream when an obtrusive ad is being played is extremely small, having an alternative viewer for this would be greatly appreciated. This could include allowing for use of multiple monitors if available, or an alternative viewer like full screen and theater modes which allow for the ad remain large but give a larger section of screen real estate to the stream as well. These should be optional toggles.

use Stream display ads instead of prerolls on live content ,keep prerolls on VODS my experience on twitch lately is that i dont go looking for new content creators much due to prerolls annoyance . you cant treat twitch like a Video on demand service you have to treat it as a live service , and you don't interrupt a live service with ads , SDAs are a great way not to interrupt the live broadcast . and midrolls controlled by the content creators as well . the issue with midrolls is that sometimes the midrolls are longer than the break the streamer takes this needs to be addressed as well

With the testing of Stream Display Ads, many creators are excited to begin using them as an alternative to disruptive full video advertisements. However, because preroll ads are still displaying, the main problem being voiced in my community still isn't being addressed: the disruptive nature of preroll ads.

To quote my friend Kit, a fellow streamer:
"Those [preroll ads] are so frustrating, especially hopping into a stream from a raid. Missing all the hi's and thank you's and welcomes because I gotta see a 90sec ad about totino's"

Stream Display Ads are a great alternative to full video ads, but only when they CAN be used as an alternative. Please give us the option to fully utilize these instead of forcing disruptions to our content.

How about a section that isn't about ideas and about direct feedback of experience(s) and or complaints. Before you say, " well if you are going to complain then provide a solution" .. that isn't my job as a user of twitch. I'm also trying to understand who uservoice is since twitch doesn't own uservoice? Here is my feedback and complaint ----> In short , in the last couple days, i went from seeing a single ad before watching the streamer to now, SIX ADS IN A ROW. What is that? It's also disturbing when the arrogant top tier streamers say, "SUB then you wont see the ads. It's one thing to get a single ad or even two before watching a streamer or mid roll but shoving down 6 ads NOW is ridiculous. This all happened ( for me ) in the last couple of days. Also, the arrogant comment by the streamer must understand subbing someone just doesn't happen and i know they are use to it with this youth just dumping subs but there is a reason you have a follow button right? Then sub button. If i had to sub the amount of people i follow on my list i would be able to make a 400 dollar car payment. Its just ridiculous. You cant tell me something didn't happen with now getting 6 ads before watching the streamer to how it was barely a couple days ago.

Every single time I try to watch anything new or find any content that might be interesting or popular I legit miss more of it because of ad's then i get to enjoy it. Then to top it off the ad's have nothing to do with anything related to anything on this site why are we running ads for **** that has nothing to do with content creators or the community of the content creator. Like why the **** do i want a add for some random item that wouldn't even sponsor/provide support/relate to the streamer/community and or anything to do with twitch in general. Can we please stop advertising amazon ********* on a content site???? like you already have enough ads on every other site can we please just have a option to at least pause the stream's content while a add is forced on to us if we have no choice here i am so sick of missing something in a stream due to a ******* ad and then not having a Vod to rewatch it on because everyone is scard of DCMA *********. Can we simply not have the content streaming site we have all come to love back
