Get rid of the purple screen
I commonly get these stupid purple screens saying that I should disable any adblockers and such in the middle of streams, sometimes multiple in the same stream only 10-15 minutes apart. Each one lasts for SEVERAL minutes, which makes watching streams much more uncomfortable because im missing a lot of content and having to listen and watch nothing. Are these supposed to be midroll ads despite the fact that you guys got rid of them??

They haven't removed them, they say they have but just changed the way they work.

If you are annoyed by purple screens, it may be worth asking to set up the ad in the presentation. Resource helps me to set up business and advertising https://slidepeak.com/pitch-deck-design.

Why even bother documenting embed twitch? It is unusable!

Trying to run charity streams with this still occurring. No one has responded when we tried to contact Twitch about it. The fact you are still fighting adblockers by punishing ALL embed viewers is an absolute disgrace at this point.

It's 2022 and this is STILL HAPPENING. I thought this was an "experiment".

Seriously, do you really can't run ads on embedded twitch also?
It's that difficoult to run the same exact ads that you run on twitch.tv on other sites too with your own embed code that YOU have coded and give to all of us? -

This needs to be removed. It does more harm to the creators than it does good for the business.

This is really sad. This harms the Twitch streamer not anyone else. If you want to use the excuse....'My Ad Revenue' then add ads back to the embed.

Seriously, you've implemented an obtrusive, unskippable purple screen that RUINS the Twitch 'experience' and if that wasn't bad enough you increased the frequency AND the duration from 15 seconds every 15 minutes to 30 seconds every 10 minutes.
Frankly this is nothing but greed, capitalising on ad revenue (as if you need it, you're owned by AMAZON, one of the biggest companies in the world!) but noooo, that's not enough, you want MORE!
Nobody wants to use twitch if even when they're adblocker is paused they're still faced with a huge purple screen. I personally have even stopped streaming BECAUSE of the purple screen. Why should I bother streaming when people have to contend with this bullsh*t.
Now I know you guys aren't stupid, undo your mistakes. Find an alternative way that isn't so annoying. If you don't, you're gonna see your viewers/streamers migrate to another platform because this is ridiculous.

Not only is your purple screen not functioning properly, because it often plays multiple times in a row (turning a supposed 30 interruption into a 90 or 120 second one), but it's absolutely moronic in design. NOBODY wants their broadcast interrupted, it's completely backwards.

On multi twitch, I'm watching two streamers, one of which I'm subbed to, the other I'm not, so it seems the site thinks I'm using an ad blocker on the unsubbed stream and shows me a purple screen, but I am not. Please fix.

How can this message show up even in a browser without any extension whatsoever?

Same here. Adblocker is paused on the entirety of the Twitch.tv domain, still getting the purple screen every few minutes. I'm happy to support Twitch with ads but want to protect myself where browsing elsewhere.

My adblock and VPN are disabled... why am I still getting the purple screen? This is ridiculous! You'll lose more money from users leaving than from whatever ad money you are trying to get. I will happily watch ads, but y'all aren't even allowing that!

I can't watch Twitch in any browser, forcing me to use your app if I want to be able to even watch a stream. If this was some ploy to drive people to your app that is deplorable. You could at least provide us with information like what third party site our traffic is being routed through so we could figure out what is doing the routing.
I have disabled AdBlock for Twitch and restarted my browser multiple times, I'm not going to uninstall my AdBlock because Twitch isn't the only website I visit.

I am now unable to watch a Twitch channel I am not subscribed to. I get a purple screen for 60 seconds frequently enough that it blocks my ability to watch. FYI my adblocker has been turned off for Twitch for years so that I am able to support streamers and Twitch. I can't even watch the ads to provide revenue, all I see is the purple screen message. I should not be punished just for having one installed.
Fix your programing, your greed is now punishing people who actually try to give you ad revenue. I'm really starting to feel resentful towards your platform, the greedy decision making, as well as, the extremely poor execution of your updates/choices. -

With Adblock paused I should not be getting the purple message every 10 minutes, sitting through 4-5 minutes of absolutely nothing.
I can't uninstall Adblock on my device. My Adblock never even blocked advertisements before so please fix this new feature as it is making it impossible to watch anything on Twitch.

So, I've been seeing this since yesterday, it's very anooyin, ADblocker is NEVER activated on twitch.tv and I WILL NOT unistall it, you can't force me if I don't use it on you, this is ridicule, if this S*** continue I will move to youtube or facebook.
