Cannot enter a quote mark into video description
Typing a single quote [ ' ] into the video description field for a highlight gets transformed into the HTML entity ' - which wouldn't be a problem if that was what got spat out on the VOD page, but it isn't, we see the raw escaped entity in the description.
This is a pretty big problem for languages that use that mark as punctuation, like, y'know, English. The most commonly spoken language in the world and also the language we are writing in right now.
You can see the issue on this VOD page: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1131783457
Please fix asap! Cheers

This seems to be resolved now. They also fixed markdown and links in descriptions back in October 2022.

This has also been a problem ever since I first started streaming over a year ago. C'mon please fix it you guys. it shouldn't be that hard because it can handle other punctuation. Add quotes to the list of handled characters.

This really needs a fix, you can't have a single quote or double quote in a highlight description... REALLY?
' = '
" = "
