1. Number of consecutive Adverts (Ads) viewed at one time.

   Re: Adverts

   I encounter many people complaining to streamers in chat about the number of adverts/ads they have to view for not being a subscriber to their channel, and adverts being a hindrance to their free viewing experience; including, adverts/ads pushed by Twitch and/or periodically by the streamer themselves.

   For transparency, could I suggest changing how adverts are viewed, and how often; with respect to countdown timer including total time for all adverts, and not only an individual timer for each consecutive advert viewed, as length of each advert can differ regardless of the number of adverts to be viewed.

   Example:
   4 ads = 15 seconds each = 60 seconds.
   4 ads = 30 seconds each = 120 seconds.
   4 ads = 2x 15secs + 2x 30secs = 90 seconds.

2. Ads and other

   So difficult just to contact support. Getting 3 ads in less than 30 minutes. Why do we not get paid to watch ads?? Twitch get money from ads, the streamers get money from ads, why not the end user who watch the ads? So many time wasted watching ads. Then why must I click every time on Followed channels just to put it on High to Low, can't you guys keep my settings that I select in the first place? Can't you mute the video when you open twitch? Some streamers scream in there mic and when you open twitch, that sound go full blast in your ears, so annoying.

5. Improve Ad Selection

   If you're going to barrage with ads using the same depressing, awful ad on repeat makes Twitch unwatchable altogether. You have to at least select some variety and some entertainment or creative value. And nothing that is an ideological push.

9. Broken ad player

   Whenever a scheduled Ad, pre-roll, or mid-rolled Ad plays. The stream displays a commercial break in progress, but no actual Ad is playing. There is a counter that pops up in the bottom right corner and the amount of Ads display as if an Ad is running but all that's seen is a blend of colors.

   When anyone clicks on these Ads it just takes them to the twitch support page. advertisers must not be getting some sort of income if this occurs.

   Taking a look at my revenue for the past few days, when this Bug started to occur, I'm making $0! From Ads... I've seen this bug on other channels as well and is not right. Streamers are getting ripped out of their split of revenue. While their viewers are still being interrupted from the stream.

   THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED ACROSS TWITCH

10. Реклама

    Смотрю трансляции людей находящихся под санкциями, почему я должен смотреть рекламу, если люди не могут вывести средства? почему нет раздела отключения рекламы полностью, для определенных регионов? или могу ли я за каждый просмотр рекламы получать деньги, если я ее смотрю, а стример не получает ничего?

11. Ads shouldn't be in VODs (if there are it shouldnt be much)

    So recently while watching a buddys streams vod because I missed it, I kept getting more than 1 ad over and over again without a solid hour break in between which is annoying. My idea is if there are ads in VODS at all, there should only be 1-2 after every hour, not minute.

12. Stop repeating ads just because I momentarily pause the stream or switch tabs.

    The amount of ads getting served while watching vods on twitch is honestly well into the "bug" category. I launch a vod, get served 3 ads. If I pause the stream at all and unpause it, I get three more ads, even if the last three JUST finished. If I mute the video player or switch my browser to a different tab during the ad, it instantly serves three new ads as soon as the ones I was avoiding watching finish. This is literally from a Black MIrror episode and it's not ok. I watch vods while doing other work and I have to pause frequently and this makes the site totally unusable.

13. Nudity

    I was trying to watch a VOD of someone’s channel and got a Dove ad(yes, dove soap!) and it showed a topless female lathering herself with soap. Probably the worst ad I’ve ever seen and something I’m EXTREMELY uncomfortable with seeing—not even sure how to report it since it disappeared right after finishing

14. Add a option to post in chat ads are live (helps single monitor people & viewers)

    Please let us see when ads are starting, without having to have the creator dashboard open, such as posting in chat as a bot when ads are live.

    Would be nice if there was a way for Twitch to post when ads are starting in the chat, so that people who stream with a single monitor, (which is a lot of people still) would be able to see when ads are starting and ending.
    Plus viewers could see this too.

    I have streamed for well over 3 years now, and due to disability and poverty, I can't afford anything, let alone another monitor, so I have to use overlays and rely on things informing me, something Twitch doesn't so.

15. Ads visual bug

    I'm experiencing a weird bug about ads both on the pc and on the Twitch app. Basically the advertising starts but i can only hear that and the livestream keeps going overlapping its audio. This lasts only for a couple of seconds and after that the ad stops. This tho makes it so the browser doesn't recognize an ad has been played and keeps doing this every few minutes. Another bug related to this is the sudden interruption of the playing ads leaving only the black banner saying "an ad is playing keep connected to support...." until i restart the player.

17. Your Ads are honestly ridiculous

    I just had 17 ads in the last 15 minutes. I can understand an ad here and there but when Im missing half the stream because of ads why even bother. My idea is care a little bit about your viewers experience instead of being greedy and making ad revenue or eventually you wont have any viewers and the streamers wont have careers which is sad honestly. Not everyone has money for subscriptions like turbo to every platform or to sub to all the streamers they wanna support but chasing them off with ads helps no one. At least make it reasonable so the viewer dont miss half the stream, thats really all Id ask for.

18. Stop Ads During Earthquake News Streams/Streamers

    Right now, we're dealing with the biggest natural disaster that happened to our country. Since we're living in a country with media blockage, Twitch is one of the few social media sites where we can get real news, especially for persons like me who are trying to figure out what's happening in foreign countries. When I'm trying to understand if my citizens are safe, I'm getting 3+ ads at least 3 minutes long. Please stop it for a while, at least.

20. Creators Need Tools to Customize Ad Content

    Creators need tools that customize ad content to improve the ad viewing experience on the platform. It is a serious flaw in the system that creators do not have any input on what ad content is shown to their viewers.

    To share what prompted this idea, the other night a viewer informed me that they had been shown an ad for Hogwarts Legacy. This was very upsetting, because my stream has become a haven for marginalized folks on the platform (I myself am a triple minority). The promotion of JK Rowling's media on my stream was very upsetting to my entire community, as she is an outspoken bigot who profits off of marginalizing others.

    To be clear, my complaint is not about the existence of the Hogwarts Legacy ad. I understand that Twitch profits from running ads on our streams; this was merely one of many ads being shown on the platform. My problems with what happened are the following:

    1) The ad was harmful. It actively marginalized folks in my community.
    2) The ad made the viewing experience on Twitch far less entertaining for my community.
    3) The ad was completely ineffective. No one in my stream supports or condones the product being promoted.

    Creators have zero tools available that address the problems I outlined above. We need a tool in our dashboard that allows us to set preferences for the types of ads that would interest our audiences: we need to be able to customize ad content for our viewership.

    Let's take another example. Let's say that a streamer knows that they have a disproportionate number of vegetarian or vegan viewers. As of now, creators cannot give the algorithm feedback on their viewers' interests. At some point, these viewers would be shown ads that promote burgers and other meat. Such an ad would not only be a turn off for most of those viewers, but also the ad would be ineffectual in advertising its product.

    Broadly speaking, viewers want to see ads for products that interest them, while advertisers want their ads to be effective. Without any tool for creators to customize ad content, ads only have a random chance of intriguing viewers.

    If we had tools to customize ad content, it would not only improve the ad experience for the viewer, but also would help advertisements reach target audiences. More effective advertising would make the prospect of ads more appealing to advertisers, generating more revenue for Twitch and creators.

    I hope that this suggestion can lead towards improving entertainment on Twitch.
