Cooldown that applies to both preroll and midroll If I sit through a preroll, I don't want to watch the stream for 15 seconds and then also sit through a midroll or an ad from the streamer. Shared Cooldown at the very least please

Disable midroll and pre-roll adds They are egregious and pushing people away from exploring new channels.
Midrolls ruin the experience and are extremely anti-consumer7 votes -
Allow us to accrue more time without Preroll ads The main reason I stopped running mid stream ads is because it is MORE disruptive than prerolls if you do longer streams (12+ hours) like I do.
To put it into perspective, if I wanted to disable prerolls for at least an hour every opportunity I can I would have to run at least roughly 30 minutes of ads, that's ridiculous.My suggestion is that we are allowed to accrue at least 2-4 hours of no preroll ad viewing, then after that time is up we could run midroll ads during a break and have things even out more smoothly…

whole-site ad option for viewers to temporarily stop preroll ads currently, viewers are discouraged from watching new streamers due to preroll ads as soon as they load a stream for the first time.
so it would be great if a viewer could click a button to watch a few minutes of ads, and then not have to watch preroll ads.
similar to streamers running 3 minutes of ads per hour to stop prerolls for their channel for the rest of the hour, a viewer would be able to watch 3 minutes of ads and be immune from preroll ads for an hour.

ads too long I can't even watch anymore. Something has changed, far far for the worse. So many unskippable ads, they are insanely lengthy. Like, I watched 2 minutes of ads before the stream would start, and then it bugged out and just showed a PIP icon. Then after waiting a while, I refreshed, and was treated to four minutes of un-skippable ads. That would be six minutes of ads, for less than one minute of seeing the content creator.
There is no way to modify or adjust which ads I see.
If I were to consider buying an ad-free subscription - I…

Stream Audio and Ads Audio So this is a pretty simple feature request. I would like the ability to choose the audio I listen to for streams, because nothing is worse when you're watching someone and they're deep in a conversation about something, or responding to someone's question and then it cuts to an ad and you miss everything they're saying because the audio from the ads takes priority away, muting the stream entirely. This is also severely annoying when people raid into channels and they're made to watch a series of ads before they can hear the streamer greeting them. Perhaps a priority should…

STREAMERS CANT RESPOND TO FIRST COMMENTERS IF THEY RECIEVE ADS RIGHT AWAY Streamers receive notifications when a viewer comments for the first time. As a frequent commenter, I plan around this, but have often received ads directly after my first comment in small streams. When I return, the streamer is talking about the topic I brought up in my comment. I can’t help but feel they are responding but I have no idea because I was forced to watch them talking without audio with an ad in my view. Can these ads be visual only? Can I have some time after my first comment to hear what they say? If they are…

Get rid of pre-roll ads entirely Everytime i enter to a channel i see a pre-roll ad and its annoying to say the least, and most of the time (if not everytime) there are 2 ads in total, And that just because i entered a stream. just stop it, its **** the pre-roll ads and everyone gets annoyed by it and probably makes twitch get less money from it.

Lighter pre-rolls for affiliates No small streamer should have to think about dealing with pre-rolls. It hinders growth and discoverability. It's likely that most small streamers are just starting to figure out how to retain an audience. So having to juggle between bringing new people and keeping those who were already there is an unnecessary job that only brings more anxiety.
Affiliates (or maybe just streamers with less than 10 simultaneous average viewers or so) could have a lighter ad schedule. For example, in order to disable pre-rolls, streamers would need to run 1min30s of ads every hour. That would be a good way…

Have ads be opt in only. I do not like pre roll ads. It is annoying to me as a viewer and a streamer. If you insist on having ads, allow an opt in setting. While opting out disables ads permanently.

Get rid of prerolls entirely! Get rid of preroll advertisements as a whole. They absolutely destroy channel discovery for new/low viewer streamers and if you're the type of person that has a buggy internet connection, sometimes you get disconnected for just enough time for Twitch to interpret your reconnection as you rejoining for the first time again and hits you with even more advertisements you possibly saw not even four minutes ago.
For real, prerolls do nothing for the viewer, the people that ALLOW TWITCH TO EXIST AS A WEBSITE IN THE FIRST PLACE. I'm not even saying get rid of ads in their entirety,…

excessive pre-roll ads I'm trying to watch a past broadcast and every time it starts playing a new set of pre-roll adds starts. I've had to sit through like 3 sets. Please fix it so i can just watch what i want to watch after the ads.

Preroll Ad Length Please consider limiting the size or amount of pre roll ads we receive. It is really off putting if I want to switch between 2 or 3 different streams but every time I see a 15-30second ad. I also am more likely to not check out a smaller streamer if I get a 30 second ad right up front. Thank-you.

Ads that don't cover the whole stream Any way that ads won't cover the entire screen won't keep viewers away from the action, which would make them much more bearable. The current state is NOT like ads running on TV, more like if we had to watch ads during a sports match and ended up missing part of the game because of it! It's obviously extremely disruptive and long term damaging.

Remove in video ads, they ruin twitch They killed the experience of finding new streams because as soon as I find a stream I'm instantly hit with 30second to 2mins of ads, only to be hit by them every few minutes, how am i supposed to enjoy a stream when I miss out on so much?

Pre-roll ads are obnoxious. They make me leave the stream before it starts. Stop the greed on general ads.

Bit Thresholds to Trigger Subscriptions Certain quantities of bits above a certain threshold should automatically trigger a subscription.
For example, if I'm a viewer from the USA and I contribute 600+ bits that can be a trigger for a Tier 1 subscription.
This may be a feature that's opt-in for the streamer, to ensure that the correct ratio of compensation reaches both Twitch and the Streamer.
