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.

By adding Ukrainian you will increase the gaming community for views, which will be good for all parties. For Twitch - more users, for Streamers - more active views, subscriptions and followers. For viewers, this will be a great platform to watch game streams and more. The gaming community in Ukraine is large, and our native language matters to us.

I kindly request the addition of the Ukrainian language as an interface option on your website. This would greatly benefit the Ukrainian-speaking community and enhance their overall experience on Twitch. Thank you for considering this request.

Guys, 35k+ on one stream may be enough for adding UA language? If we need to make this number bigger - just tell us how much, we will schedule ourselves
