Content Creator control/ownership of Clips
Recently I lost at a minimum 58 clips from my channel due to the person who created them no longer being part of my community. This included my most popular clip of all time and many other amazing funny moments.
The reason I am mentioning that is to add context for the biggest flaw in the clip creation system. There is no way to recover these at all so these memories are just gone forever.
My susgestion is to change how this works. Take away people's ability to delete clips that they created for another channel either all together or after X time they cannot delete the clip. Nobody should have power or control over the creators content which this gives. This person had full control over my clips they created for me and therefore my content. I should not have to download every clip of mine just to keep them safe, they should be safe on Twitch. The content creator should have full ownership of any clips made of their channel.
Hi! Just confirming that starting today, you now have additional control over Clips that you've featured. Once you feature a Clip created by another viewer, the viewer will no longer be able to edit the title or delete the Clip. Thank you!

Right now the clipper can delete an old clip leaving the broadcaster without the clip of an important moment in their broadcast .(Most important to small- medium size streamers since there will probably be only 1 person who clipped the moment)
What I would suggest is allowing streamers(and/or mods) to...
have a check-mark in the settings that would automatically save the clips that are deleted after the broadcast is deleted and would just dissociate the clip from the clipper instead of deleting it.
OR
mark clips as "important" meaning that if the clipper decides to "delete" the clip only the connection mentioning of who clipped it would be deleted and not the clip itself.
