Hello,

I would like to propose a new category for the home page - Language Learning bracket (apps like Rosetta, DuoLingo, Babel) through which a creator can live stream whilst learning a new language and interact with the community who may be A) interested in learning too B) may be native speakers and can give tips or just laugh at the bad pronounciation etc. Although it could be part of JustChatting I think having its own separate category may incentivise people to have a look. From standard languages like French, Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish etc to dead languages like Latin, ancient Greek to fictional like Orcish or Klingon. It can be both educational and fun in my opinion.

Apologies if this is the wrong sub forum but the general one wouldn't let me post this idea.

As a previous user and streamer of Mixer there was a easy option to click someones name which provided a drop down menu to select follow on the user. Speaking to a few mixer streamers who have since moved to twitch from there they are finding it difficult to follow new people. The only way we can follow someone is by clicking their name and then dragging it to a new tab in a browser and then waiting for that persons channel to load for us to follow. Maybe imperilment a follow button next to the whisper, add friend and gift sub. I was thinking of maybe a heart in the space left next to the gift sub button similar to what you have when you visit someones channel just the heart and no wording.

Making highlights effortless.

-A streamer has an epic gamer moment.
-Lots of viewers clip that section during the stream.
-Twitch automatically creates a 30 second highlight of that section of the stream based on how many people clipped it.
-The streamer can set the threshold of clips to create a highlight (Eg:minimum 20 clips within 10 seconds to create a highlight) or disable it completely.
-highlight shows up on the streamer’s channel page.
-The streamer can go back and edit the highlight to be longer or shorter depending on what they want to show in the highlight. They can also remove it.
-To prevent abusing clips and highlighting the entire stream, the streamer can put a cooldown timer on how often viewers can clip their stream per viewer. (Eg viewer makes a clip, has to wait 10 minutes until they can clip again)

Highlight section on the front page of twitch.

-Have a section on the front page of twitch for popular / following / recommended highlights parallel to the live channels / categories section.
-Popularity of highlight is based on how many people clipped that section of the stream / how many views it gets over time.
-Treat it similar to the trending tab on youtube or hot on reddit.
-Also have a section for highlights from streamers you follow (like the sub box on youtube) and for recommended highlights.
-“Clips we think you’ll like” section would become the recommended highlights section.
-Be able to sort highlights like reddit posts (Eg: sort by hot / top of hour, day, week, new, ect.)

Saving clips overhaul.

-Viewer makes a clip.
-Clip gets saved to their channel under “my clips” section.
-Make it front and center.
-Current clip system is kinda bad because you have to go digging through your creator dashboard to find clips.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

I think it would be super rad if there were an option to flag your stream as NSFW which would require people to have a Twitch account (aged 18+) to view your stream, so that you can speak a bit more freely, more relaxed, and you can potentially try to cater to a more mature audience for people that don't want to have kids watching their stream.

Even better, a toggle to tag your whole account as NSFW so that you only interact with adults.

*Edit: This would allow people to play games that have nudity as well, broadening the scope of potential content that can be created.

As a feature request, Allow MODs to see & moderate created clips, currently only available to channel editors. and account owners.

My suggestion allow MODs to 1) see all channel clips for channel they moderate for 2) edit clip titles 3) "Disable" a clip making it Private, non viewable or indexable on internet. Then keep Delete function for Editors & channel owners.

With this I'd also suggest adding a Clips API endpoint so a person or 3rd party service could generate a CSV file of all clips on a channel. This should also be accessible to MODs & Channel owners in the MOD View and Stream Manager Dashboard. CSV would show (Creator, Channel owner, Category, Title, Clip URL, Creation Date,)

Current chapter system is great, but it's only useful when you play multiple games during one stream. But what should streamers do if they play only one game per day, but have several matches or different gamemodes? My idea is to add new feature similar to /marker feature that adds new chapter into recent broadcasts video, because it seems that "chapter" is not the best name for game change. I know that it's probably a useless feature, but it seems that it doesn't break the logic of existing chapter system and that recent broadcasts are more popular than highlights (and highlights are mainly used to upload videos on youtube).

Think about when you are listening to your favorite music while watching your favorite streamer... Then they raid someone who is listening to music that clashes with yours. You either left their stream, or shut off your own music, right? With talks about cracking down on the usage of copyrighted music on Twitch. I would like to offer an idea that is similar to Discord and their integration with Spotify and their listening parties.

Let the streamer play music through Spotify, and allow viewers to join in and listen to the music that their favorite streamer is listening to. Those same viewers could also decide to listen to their own music, if they would like. I don't know all the logistics that would go into separating music from the stream for the broadcaster. Same could be done with Amazon Prime music, YouTube music, and the like.

Tell me what you think. I would love this to become a thing in the future. Let the discussion begin.
