Turn ads off
Can I just turn them off forever?? I'm a small streamer and its stunting growth when non-subs can't just chill in the channel. Let me turn ads off, its not like its making you or me any money. It's not a big deal

If there's no better solution, I wouldn't mind just paying for some amount of time/tokens to not play ads - like if I could just pay Twitch's cut for ads. I understand they want to make money off of all of this, but neither my nor Twitch's cut for ads played is worth anyone's time. Considering I make significantly more from Subs, just take a cut of my sub income to not play ads.
The VAST majority of streamers which are far smaller than myself (and I'm already tiny despite what my follow count would suggest) would likely only need to be about $5-10 a month, most likely far less. Setting up a "cost of ad not played" token system would allow Twitch to avoid extensive payment processing fees for streamers who would have made $5/mo or less on ads - just purchase $5-10 worth of tokens for whatever 1-3 months of ads-not-played that the average streamer might incur.

Yes! Let us decide to run ads or not.

on the contrary, twitch make a shedload off ads, but they only give you around 0.0001% of the profit.
