  1. While streaming content, could a streamer gate their content and possible DMA content with a black box or animated box over the content they're streaming? Let's say a streamer wants to watch a video that isn't part of Twitch.tv but is sharable via stream. If that content was paid for and isn't free to all persons, there would be a box placed over that content. The streamer could then create a code for the viewers that unlocks the content window the streamer wants to share.

  2. On the dashboard, when you click on "Start Watch Party" it would be nice to have the option to send and receive invitations to join the Watch Party and join the session.

    In the stream, two or more streamers would broadcast the content synchronized in their lives, with pause requests (if all streamers pause the content, the content will pause).

    To communicate, they would use Discord, or maybe even the new feature "Guest Star" to show all reactions in the same live.

  3. Now that Hosting is no more, when a streamer raids someone, you should show a notification on their offline channel who they raided, as long as that raid target is still streaming.

    I thought that they would be displayed in the "offline carousel" but that doesn't seem to be happening, if that was the intent.

    Regardless, there should be an explicit notification of where to go if you missed a raid.

  4. Raid accessible without a streamer. Viewers load into a chat session and get casted to a streamer. Raid only party that joins a streamer at random even with 0 followers.

  6. Hosting was and still is an invaluable community tool. To remove it and not provide its actual functionality to raids is extremely anti-user. Raiding does not provide the same experience that many users enjoyed about Hosting. Hosting provided a local community the chance to enjoy larger streamers/events without being forced to chat in a 10k+ chat box.

    Twitch chose to deprecate Hosting because it was a confusing user experience, but I think they can easily come up with a newer, stream-lined Hosting system for smaller streamers to enjoy larger content with their own chat.

  7. Allowing streamers who participate in squad streams to merge their chats would provide a smoother chat and viewing experience for both streamers and viewers. Currently, viewers watching a squad stream only have the option to switch between chats or pop out chats for both streamers, which makes stream moments and events tougher to follow, especially for setups like mobile where viewers may only be able to view one chat at a time. Having a combined chat where messages posted can be seen by viewers of both streamers in the same conversation would make squad streaming more convenient and memorable.

  8. Twitch üzerinde dikey modda seyir partisi olan bir yayına girdiğinizde eğer prime aboneliğiniz yok ise ilgili yayını kapayıp başka yayına geçilmiyor. Yatay moda aldığımızda seyir partisinden çıkarken dikey modda siyah yayın ekranına tekrar atıyor.

  9. Now I suggesting that making reward system, like channel-point system, but not automatically distributed.
    A rough idea I can offer is that "channel-medal" system (named for example), at first, some channel-medals are given to streamer, and
    the streamer or its moderators can distribute channel-medal to certain viewer as many as they like. All viewers can see any other viewer quantity of channel-medals.
    This might effects like a VIP badge, but VIP badge is not able to given more than fixed number, so channel-medal is more easily and flexibly dealt with its amounts.
    I hope that the system will make viewers…

  11. There are too many developers requiring an absurd amount of watch time for their daily drops. For example, The Cycle: Frontier requires watching for 18 hours(!) for 6 of their daily drops while No Man's Sky requires 6 hours 45 minutes for their daily drop. There isn't enough time in the day for just these 2 games, meanwhile there are multiple other events going on. By allowing the developers this kind of freedom, you're punishing your users.

    Twitch should revisit their rules regarding drops to make them more community friendly. While there are many ways to solve this issue, I…

  13. How about if some little things would become more controllable and customizable for the viewer. In streams (of course if the streamer would turn on this feature) you would be able to control more of what you see on your screen. For example, facecams. Depending on the game facecams can be a bit on the way of the gameplay. Streamers do their best to position it in the best positon and size possible but what if that was in the viewers hands and it would be even easier for the streamer. The streamer would be able to record his/her face…

  14. Audio volume can be a huge headache to tweak, because there are so many moving parts involved-- (in-game audio settings, capture settings, mic settings, etc) and what the streamer hears isn't always what viewers hear. Streaming software displays your audio levels in real time, but not everybody understands what this means for your actual output.

    This leads to some streams having good mic/game balance but being whisper-quiet without realizing, or streams where the streamer KNOWS an adjustment is needed, but gets mixed feedback from viewers about how much to change. It also means a lot of trial and error for…

  16. Hello Twitch,

    You tell us that using third-party sites to watch multiple Twitch streams at the same time is detrimental to our chat experience. I totally understand the sense of loyalty and fidelity we must have towards you, but to be honest, I expected better.

    Watching multiple streams at the same time would allow us to stay in touch with multiple communities at the same time and not miss any highlights. So why not? Creating the Squad Stream system was a good initiative to follow several streamers on a common game. But if you are so keen to keep us…

  17. Have goal options instead of only a follower goal. A viewer goal which displays my current live viewers as they enter and leave. Also, if I'm meeting the expectations for that goal. For example, Live Viewer Goal 0/3 or Average 3 Viewers 2.7/3.

  18. This was a feature Broken by removal of the Host command: If you missed the outgoing raid as a viewer you could see where the raid went and join in, and the Offline streamer would remain in host mode, so we can clearly find the name of the raided channel: Providing a persistent Redirect instead of a one-time redirect to the raided channel.

    Please repair/restore the functionality of allowing the Offline streamer to provide a persistent redirect To a channel and make it so we can see when joining the chat which channel the streamer last raided from the Offline…

  19. On my channel, I am used to replacing emotes and badges when come Christmas or Halloween.
    It is a very long process because I have to re-upload badges.

    It would be very helpful for a lot of streamers to have badges collection like for emotes to easily switch between them.

    Moreover, with an API we could use scripts to automatically change the selected emotes and badges. It would save us a lot of time.
