Reruns vs LIVE
Live vs Reruns
i think it should be made cleared when a chanel is on a rerun, it shouldn't say "LIVE"
A way that i think they could help new streamers, or lew viewercount streamers overall is to have two subcategories, Live and Reruns.
this would let streamers that are live have a chance to grow.
on the asmr category it's getting out of hands the amount of reruns, youtubecompilations and bots. and we can't do anything about it too. i've reported multiple channels but they are still there, even getting into front page. it's sad to see how the essence of t
witch is getting lost.
promoting reruns over live channels

I am with it mostly. There may be some situations where it is different. For example there is this guy who is doing massages in Stream. He has to make it as a video because the person he is massaging has to change position from time to time. He is in his Chat and only let's run his newest video and only for 1 or 2 hours. In my opinion it is OK to do that, because he is "live" because he is in chat and answers questions and gives explanations and tips for massages and oil/wax and other stuff you need for massages.

100% agree, reruning content is fine, but it should not be top suggested.

I agree entirely, I find it shocking that an ASMR channel is playing youtube videos - which you can match to the second on youtube and yet is being highlighted on the Twitch homepage under "recommended live channels"
1. its not live
2. it's not even a re-run of an ASMR stream its a YouTube video
3. this isn't the only channel that is doing itIt is sad for all the people who are working hard to produce live broadcasts going unnoticed behind these "Live Streams" of youtube content. .. this is a live broadcasting platform not YouTube. . . if I wanted to watch youtube vids and have no interaction with a streamer or community I would go to youtube.
Please, address the issues within the ASMR category

Please Twitch. If you want to stay relevant you should address concerns like this. If nothing else allow us the tools to better sort Directories that are browsed. It is unacceptable a Blocked users Stream will show up in a Directory

I hate scrolling through all my followed channels and have to find the ONE that may be live. At least put pre recorded in it's own section, put the focus on the ACTUAL live people. It's getting old quick.

I'm not quite sure why this isn't being addressed sooner tbh

I am with you guys, if Twitch is not going to cease it, soon enough the whole platform might just become a "LIVE" playlist for YouTube.

I completely agree a rerun should not be allowed to be streamed as a live stream

You're absolutely right. These streamers who pass youtube playlist as live should not be allowed to do so. It is unfair to people who make actual live streams and also to the other reruns who actually show up as reruns

I agree entirely, I go to youtube, for pre recorded content. I have no issue with recorded content being broadcast as reruns, but it's false advertising to list it as live...
