  1. im not a streamer but most of the times i love to stream for my friends only, like i dont want anyone else to watch or follow or even chat. like i would love to have private stream, after all i just stream for a friend, im not a streamer or intend to be.

    but ive gained followers but i only stream for 1 friend. i do hope to see personal accounts or locking the stream via code or sending a request to watch, twitch is for all

  2. Much like resubbing to a channel, I would think a follower versary would be a cool to see every year with the ability to write a message in there. (example: Username has been following for 12 months. Hype. Share your message.) It dont have to be over the top kind of thing.

  3. Are there auto-detect games because I don't want to go back to twitch and change the category to a different game. People can choose to either auto-detect or not.

  4. Some streamers have problems with bots that keep following them,

    my idea is to add a new feature to deactivate the following button of their channel temporarily to avoid any bots from following them.

  5. Now to see a rebroadcast like a video in twitch of a sub only video channel. We need to sub.

    But if we want to see one rebroadcast of a channel and one of an other and an other... We need to sub 3 times or more and more.

    But you can make a feature for that, the principle is to pay 1$ or 1.5$ for a rebroadcast to see more of them. Basically today I'm sub of 3 channels but I want to see 3 events in rebroadcaster sub only but I don't want to pay 15$ for just…

  6. Give us the ability to receive only viewers that have verified their account, or enabled 2FA. Require a birthday to be set for said accounts and allow the streamer to set the minimum allowed age.
    Currently we only have the ability to label our stream with "Mature" and require a viewer to click on "view stream", this does not actually keep out inappropriate audiences this only protects Twitch's liability and that of the streamer, which while being a good thing can be so much better.
    Not only would this help in regards to protecting minors, this would also protect streamers…

  7. I think a great way of helping the community grow and helping people grow is by adding the option to stream together on the same screen. By inviting a channel to stream with you on your channel, you, in turn, stream on their channel as well and you end up sharing viewership and growing together with your friends. A great way of doing it is by looking at the multistre.am website and going to layout 4, or by joining both chats together so that both you, and your partner can interact with the chat together without having the problem of…

  9. It would be a great way for musicians on Twitch to be discovered if there were a TwitchMusic channel which highlighted a new music streamer from the Music & Performing Arts category every 15 minutes, in particular "Live Performance" (not the 24/7 radio stations that violate TOS which dominate the category).

    This would be a nice way for people to discover new live music streams, and it would work similar to the ChannelOne channel on the Mixer streaming platform.

  10. Let mods have their own separate emotes to make it possible to make Chibi versions of them wielding ban hammers, etc. so only they can use them.

  11. my idea is that mods are a backbone of the community on twitch and deserve a reward from twitch as most channels dont have the means to be very generous to their mods neither do moderators expect it often.

    Therefor, i think it is a nice way to reward those mods by giving the streamer the option to award a mod with free channel emotes. restricted by subpoints of that channel, so, x amount of subpoints will enable x amount of mods to be given the full set of emotes that streamer has.

    this way, a mod can feel rewarded…

  12. Please implement an additional security prompt if someone tries to delete several clips at once. It has now happened twice that a streamer has deleted several dozen clips from me because she accidentally checked the "select all" box next to the clips and then clicked delete.

  13. Would love a feature where you can change the category of clips that were mistakenly saved. This happens a lot when you start the stream in a certain category and change it as stream continues. Sometimes, if the clips are saved with the previous category. I would to request the broadcaster to be able to change the category of clips to the right one after a clip was taken.

  14. Problem: many streamers operate in sporadic irregular schedules, it makes it hard to catch them alive. The notification they just went live might be too late. There is a schedule but in practice it serves only as a hint, especially for streamers that go live very rarely.

    As a solution I propose give streamers a way to confirm/set expected stream time anytime in next say 12 hours (exact number up to tweaking). Then give followers notification (either when streamer confirms the stream, or perhaps X hours before the set time). Finally, clearly indicate in UI which of your followed creators…

  15. Currently the Auto-resize option only exists for Emotes and is incredibly helpful (where any size image is uploaded and the resulting emote is automatically generated in the three sizes needed for implementation) - however, this does not exist for Channel Point Icons, Custom Reward Icons, Sub Badges & Custom Flairs which must be uploaded three times in exact specifications of width and height.

    Since the Auto-resize tool has already been developed and implemented for Emotes, hopefully it's relatively easy to replicate for these four other types of asset uploads (and anywhere else Twitch might add the need for multiple sizes…

  16. I feel that a channel should have full control of the number of VIPs. A channel can have an unlimited number of Moderators but a max of 100 VIPs. Several channels choose to turn its VIPs into moderators just because they hit their limit and not because they want the VIP to do moderation actions.

  17. I love the first time chatter notification. I would LOVE a notification for returning chatters that have been gone for a set time based on streamer preference by week, month, 6 months, etc. For example if a viewer hasn't been active in chat for 1 month it would send a "Returning chatter" notification when the viewer chats. This would be beneficial for mid size streams that prioritize their community engagement.

  18. This would be a simple little thing to add to make a streamers life easier while streaming just by simply adding the ability to make a key blind for the snooze button would be great and would help in ways such as not interrupting live game play like if you were about to defeat a boss i ask that you add this in the near future just as a little thing to make are life's easier

    Thank you <3

  19. I would love to see something bought in so that creators can see the stats of their channel points ~ How many people are using which ones (essentially see how popular each Redemption is) so we can decide which ones are the favourites
