  2. Anime fans and streamers have long been waiting for the day when a streaming platform allowed this to happen, and seeing how the current partnership with Amazon with Watch Parties is doing, it might not be so far fetched after all. It would be extremely cool, if you one day partnered with Crunchyroll or Funimation for Watch Parties! It would be the coolest thing ever, especially with everyone staying home due to the Covid-19 epidemic! Imagine the viewing experience! Anime nights would finally be possible!

    Thanks for reaching out! We’ve recently made the entire Prime Video catalog available in Watch Parties, which includes thousands of movies and television shows (including lots of anime).

    We are also looking into partnering with other content providers to add even more content to Watch Parties.

  3. Add a feature and categories on Twitch: Live Streaming for all devices about reading books, book clubs, game books (Playing, news, etc..), audio books, meet behind the scenes and how it works about reading books, information and news/events about books, graphic novels/ comic books, and manga books.

    Also to be bale connect with other hobbiest readers and share boom recommendations and meet other readers and authors, art creators of books.

  4. Proposal: The Twitch "Hype-Link" Ecosystem

    Subtitle: Turning Community Passion into Platform Discovery.

    1. The Core Problem

    Currently, Twitch discovery is a "Winner-Take-All" system. New and mid-tier streamers are buried under a "Directory Floor" where they are statistically invisible unless they already have thousands of viewers. This encourages "Viewbotting" and creates a "glass ceiling" for talent.

    1. The Solution: Hype Points & The Discovery Wheels

    We replace the static "High-to-Low" viewer sort with two dynamic, interactive Discovery Wheels located at the top of every category.

    A. The "New Streamer" Wheel

    • Target: Accounts under 6 months old or hitting "Path to Affiliate" milestones.
    • How…

  5. Problem: Current Hype Train emotes are rarely updated, unlocked quickly, and seldom used.

    Solution: The Community

    Every Streamer picks one emote to be available globally in Hype Trains. Hype Train participants unlock one of the million+ emotes at random.

    And then you lose access to the emote you unlocked after 30-days to not detract from the value of a direct sub to that streamer's channel.

    In that realm of thought, this also works as a discovery feature. People might be curious about the channel whose emote they have unlocked - and go check them out. Perhaps they like the emote…

  6. Hi Twitch,

    I'm TheDementedRaven & back in April I started a campaign for your company to acknowledge Autistic streamers as it was Autism Awareness month. I launched a successful campaign on Twitter, featuring various sizes of streamers and Autistc's alike to spread the word far and wide. I started this campaign because these events are often met with silence with companies such as yourselves, & we're left without the recognition and awareness that we deserve.

    Sadly, I didn't get a response from yourselves.

    So I ask, if you are going to acknowledge myself & others with disabilities this month, because…

  7. The new /raid feature is great for channel networking as hosting has always been, but both can be problematic for many viewers. It would be convenient for the User Settings page to be updated with a set of opt out settings for both raids and hosts. If a user opts out of raids, they will be considered to automatically click "Leave" at the end of any raid countdown timer. If they opt out of hosts, hosted channels will not load unless the viewer intentionally presses the "Play" button.

    Raids and Hosting present problems for:

    1) Temporarily AFK viewers during the…

  8. When a broadcaster announces a broadcast at a specific time he can set a timer on the stream page - this way I can know when the stream starts when the time is given in different time zone

    Love this idea as well. Definitely going to consider this one!

  9. Would be nicer if the button could give an reason for the "Raid Stop" button

    Like "This channel closed the raid due is ending the stream" because is a bit ankward to raid a person and the answer be the generic "raid settings do not allow you to raid at this time".

    The raider could think this channel doesn't want ANY raid at all and never come back ever.

  10. Seeming some songs on Spotify are blocked by Twitch due to copyright issues perhaps we could get an app or something where we can put a URL for a Spotify playlist and it checks wither a song would be blocked or not, this way we could tailor playlists to be free of copyright infringement but still suit the vibe and style of our streams. Sadly there is nothing we can check songs against at present so this would be a great way to work it.

  11. I run a stream that has a variety of different maturity levels, and it would be fantastic if you could opt-in to a ratings system similar to movie ratings.

  12. Give us a way to set a list of streams we do or do not wish to receive raids from.

    Currently the only options for limiting raids are

    Allow all raids,
    Only allow raids from friends, teammates, and followed channels,
    & Block all raids.

    Occasionally raids from particular communities my prove disruptive for the receiving community, and we may not wish to take the step of banning the streamer outright. Being able to specify specific streams we do or do not wish to receive raids from would allow us a greater deal of control without resorting to the heavier step…

  13. Hi my name is Krillin and today I am writing this post as an idea for a new Twitch Guild. I've been on Twitch for almost 7 years and a partner for 6 and over those years the Twitch Guild program is absolutely one of the best ideas that I think Twitch has had. With this program being so new, obviously not everyone could be included into the Guilds, but I just wanted to present an idea for a possible new guild for people like myself and countless others. The Invisible Disability Guild.

    I'm a type-1 diabetic and have been…

  14. One of the complaints that I received during one of my recent watch party streams is that a viewers messages were never appearing in chat. This was because they did not have a valid prime subscription. My recommendation would be to treat the watch party like a subscriber only stream and/or like a VOD for the duration of the watch party and lift those restrictions when the watch party isn't happening. It would also be nice if there was something to tell them to connect their prime account or direct them on how to get prime so that they can…

    We appreciate the feedback! Our team is currently working on various designs to make it easier to onboard new Prime subscribers. Keep an eye out over the next few weeks for those new user flows!

  15. Add an option for recurring events, for example weekly shows.

  16. Hello, In light of JK Rowlings constant reminders that she hates trans people, trans women specifically, I think this is a good opportunity to change the image partners receive when accepted to something that isn't a Harry Potter reference. It would be wonderful if it is either a reference to a trans woman's work or made by a trans person. Maybe a matrix reference?

  18. I wish the filter options weren't limited to "following, "people of similar or smaller size," etc..I have to have already organically found people on Twitch to follow. I want to be able to share the community with people who have taken the time to give my channel a follow, but unless I gave everyone who follows me a follow back, then I will never know that one of my followers is live when I'm ready for another streamer to entertain the crowd. I just think that a "people who follow you" filter would be a nice addition that could allow…

  19. With the Hype Train being implemented and having such a positive effect on content creator's channels, I think it would be worthwhile to add more rewards. The conductor badges have been HUGE for showing who is genuinely supporting, as well as the emotes that get dispensed. A few ideas I have to give more incentives for donating bits and gifting subs are things such as; Names in chat have more unique traits for those who have been top supporters, such as all gold names, rainbow names, special fonts etc. The ability to add exciting alerts for when new levels have…
