  2. In the Dashboard, allow us to enable and disable Sub Gifting or Multi-Sub Gift Bombs in our channel.

    This has many uses, and I'd love to hear what others would use this for as well (more feedback the better).

    • Moves support focus towards Bits/Cheering instead of Gifted Subs (especially with Hype Chat functions moving to Bits/Cheering)
    • Prevents people missing out on being able to sub themselves because they got a gift in a gift sub bomb
    • Disincentives people from 'never subscribing' because they "always get gifted anyways"
    • Could be used by those pushing for Partner Plus,…

  3. 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?

  6. At the moment it is only possible to enable/disable creating clips on the channel. If creating is disabled, the broadcaster can still create clips.

    It would be nice if you could select whether only the broadcaster or also editors or moderators can create clips.

    Of course you could also include vips or subscribers as additional levels.

  8. With the increase of soft **** and people advertising their OnlyFans, Pornhub or whatever else, I'd like to block Just Chatting, Art, Pools and all the other categories that are used to stream soft **** and are better placed on other platforms than Twitch.

    Another idea would be to do the blocking based on tags.

  9. Browsing Twitch is incredibly difficult due to the lack of personality shown in titles and randomly generated thumbnails. Titles only allow so many characters in the preview and auto-generated thumbnails don't tell any sort of story about a streamer.

    I believe with custom thumbnails, it'd give streamers the opportunity to showcase their content at a glance.

    When we think of custom thumbnails, I believe we all think clickbaity YouTube videos, and that's a real concern we may have for custom thumbnails. But I believe Twitch users browse differently than YouTube.

    On Twitch, we are looking for a very specific type…

  10. Audio Channels:

    Add and allow different audio channels on a stream to be muted or change their volume so people can change to their liking.
    This would allow streams with background music to be adjusted on the fly, or if you just want to hear the streamer and nothing else you could mute music + gameplay to only hear the talk, or maybe you want to silence the alerts because you find them annoying.

    With this, more content creators would be able to stream the way they like, while also allowing customization for the watching party to fit their liking.

  11. 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…

  12. I'd love a button that would allow viewers/followers to send me feedback on what they enjoy about my streams or things they think I can improve on that I can read through once I finish streaming.

    Sure, there's the messaging system, but people rarely check that unless someone specifically mentions that they sent a message. I'm talking about a button near the follow button labelled "Feedback" or something of the sort and when clicked, brings up a short survey that has things such as "Communications skills", "Content", "Viewer interaction", etc on a list with bubbles you can click on to…

  13. Add option for us to stream music to a parallel stream, so that viewers can choose if they want to listen to it or not (and also let them manage the music volume).

    Could maye also be used for voice chat, and let viewers decide if they want to listen to voice chat or not

  14. It would be incredibly helpful to be able to view a user's username history, in order to maintain community safety. The feature used to exist via a third party and was invaluable for moderators on larger channels when processing unban requests.

    Since twitch only logs old chat messages to a certain point, for older channels it can be difficult to find out why a person was banned previously. Much of the time we have to trust the user to respond with previous usernames so we can search our own mod messages/google sheets for past bans, but obviously this isn't reliable.

  15. As some people dont want to see someones face while they watch the stream etc. as it changes the energy of the experience. Some people just watch for the gameplay. Need a way to toggle it on and off. If a obs feature isnt possible, we at least need a way to be able to block part of the stream while we are in fullscreen, up to 8 blocks that can be edited or something, while in edit mode, you can free transform them. Personally i cant stand when people show on stream the chat, that also changes the energy/vibe…

  16. As a streamer i can stream on OBS with up to 5 diff tracks, Track 1 Game Volume, Track 2 Mic, Track 3 Music.

    What i would love to see is as a viewer display those 3 tracks so i can mute or lower volume of the music but hear the game and streamer, or mute the streamer to listen to the game ect. i feel this shouldn't be too difficult and would massively improve the experience for myself and many others, i think.

  17. Now that hosting is gone, after a raid, there's no evidence of where everybody went.

    If your browser fails to raid, or if you get your notification too late, it's a ghost town.

    If you put your raided channel at the top of your Suggested list and enable the options, then it will show up on your page, which is almost like hosting, and better than nothing.

    But, it's difficult to do, especially if you have a long list of suggested/autohost streamers. You have to type the channel name and then drag it to the top of the list. Very…

  18. Now that subathons and other long streams are trending on Twitch there's a need for feature to notify your followers that you're live during the stream!

    Issue currently is that you need to stop your stream and restart it so the followers get notified that your stream is live! For example for subathon this is a big issue because you'll lose viewers when doing this.

    Now my suggestion is to give streamer and their trusted mod(s) a chance to announce that the stream is live without stopping the stream! It could be available once in ~24 hours so it doesn't…

  20. You can enter the stream before it starts, it could be a week in advance (if the stream is scheduled) it is a waiting room type deal that let's you watch when you are not home.
