Localization: Add Site-Wide Language Setting

Categories

Add Ukrainian language

Ukraine has a ~40M population, of which, according to the last census, 67,5% consider Ukrainian their mother tongue.

Ukraine has a vibrant gaming community. Ukrainian eSports teams (go NaVi!) are some of the most successful and competitive in the world.

Valve added Ukrainian language option to Steam in 2013 and since then the number of Ukrainian Steam players (and Steam games that have a Ukrainian localization) has been steadily increasing. According to SteamSpy, as of June 2016 there were 3.7M Ukrainian players in Steam. (source: http://steamspy.com/country/UA )

Given the above mentioned arguments, we, the Ukrainian gaming community, ask of you Twitch & Amazon to add Ukrainian as one of the official languages in Twitch and allow Ukrainian language to be an official broadcasting language. We are ready to even translate everything ourselves (via Crowdin or other similar system) provided you give us such an option.

With kind regards,
Ukrainian gaming community

Thank you for raising this issue and sharing your feedback. We are in the process of rolling out a Beta version of Ukrainian localization across Twitch. Users who have their mobile devices set to Ukrainian should automatically see Twitch in Ukrainian once our roll out is 100% complete, and web users with their system language set to Ukrainian will also be able to experience our Beta version. We want to make the Twitch service accessible to as many people as possible, and localization is a part of that.

Once the rollout is finished, we will mark this issue as "Completed." Thank you.

    Dear Twitch Language Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am writing on behalf of the vibrant Ukrainian Twitch community and its numerous content creators, viewers, and enthusiasts. We are excited to see the growth of Twitch as a global platform for sharing and enjoying various forms of content, and we believe that adding support for the Ukrainian language would greatly contribute to fostering an inclusive and diverse environment.

    Ukrainian is the official language of Ukraine, a country with a rich cultural heritage and a rapidly expanding digital landscape. By introducing Ukrainian language support on Twitch, you would be catering to a significant audience that is passionate about gaming, streaming, and creative content creation. This step would not only enhance the experience for Ukrainian-speaking users but also encourage more individuals to engage with the platform.

    Here are a few reasons why adding Ukrainian language support would be beneficial:

    Cultural Diversity: Twitch's commitment to promoting diverse cultures aligns well with supporting languages like Ukrainian. This would encourage content creators from Ukraine to share their perspectives, traditions, and unique content in their native language.

    Engagement: Language plays a crucial role in user engagement. By enabling users to interact in Ukrainian, you're likely to see increased participation, discussions, and overall engagement levels within the Ukrainian Twitch community.

    Accessibility: Many viewers and potential content creators in Ukraine might have limited proficiency in English. By offering Ukrainian language options, you make the platform more accessible and welcoming to those who are more comfortable using their native language.

    Market Potential: Ukraine has a significant gaming and content creation scene, and embracing the Ukrainian language could unlock new business opportunities and partnerships for Twitch in this region.

    We kindly request that you consider our proposal to add Ukrainian language support to Twitch. We understand that implementing language support involves technical and logistical considerations, but we firmly believe that this step would be greatly appreciated by the Ukrainian community and would align with Twitch's global expansion goals.

    If you require any assistance, feedback, or further information regarding this request, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are more than willing to collaborate and support the implementation process in any way we can.

    Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to seeing Twitch continue to flourish as a diverse and inclusive platform for creators and viewers worldwide.
