1. Getting affiliate should be about getting more followers and not more viewers

   set the affiliate program just to 50 or 75 followers because twitch has a massive problem with correct viewer count, I have had like 20 people watching my stream at one time before, all chatting at the same time, and it only counted for like 2 or 3 of them.

2. Make it easier to get affiliate

   Make it so that your followers can active an improvement - once every fortnight they can active a twelve-hour buff that puts you near the top of your category, but only if you don't have affiliate

3. Don't Punish New Streamers

   SO for a new person like myself to stream with 1 viewer for hours just having fun it cripples my ability to get affiliate because i have streamed for 80 hours with one viewer getting to 3 average viewers means I would have to get over 10 viewers to bring the average up within a 30 day period I wish it was based on viewers per stream rather then viewers per hour

5. Give "Delete all of your Clips with one click" a safety device to prevent accidental touch

   On July 24th, the development team added "Delete all of your Clips with one click" to the Clip Manager. I accidentally clicked the button when I deleted ONE Clips without knowing it on July 26th, so the clips I had clipped down for 3 years were just If it is destroyed in this way, there is no way to cancel the deletion process even if it is found to be wrong.
   I hope "Delete all of your Clips with one click" can be used as an insurance mechanism. For example, after pressing delete, all Clips will be deleted after 1 hour, and the deletion can still be cancelled during this period.

6. Unlimited VIP slots

   I get that the original idea of VIP badges was to recognize valuable members of a streamer's community, but the actual use of it is different in many cases and it is instead often used to give the streamer a better way to recognize users of a certain significance in chat.
   While that may often also include valuable community members, the main use is often to highlight real life friends, acquaintances, family members, other streamers, ... and more.

   The problem with that is the limit of 100 VIP slots that is reached at the highest level, and while that might be enough for new or smaller streamers, that amount will quickly become an annoyance for those that have been on Twitch for a long time.

   The only choice left is to use the moderator role at that point, which in itself creates a lot of other issues: the biggest one being that people that are not actually acting as a moderator of the chat being messaged by regular viewers for all kinds of inquiries that should only be handled by actual moderators, which then forces them to act as a middleman between the viewer and an actual moderator.

   I'm a moderator in various bigger chats and this is an issue in almost all of them.

   To name an example:

   "fuslie" is currently averaging 7-10k viewers at all times, she has been streaming for over 6 years and has made a lot of friends and other connections in that time.
   We are currently at the limit of 100 VIP slots (of which almost 90% are real life friends or acquaintances) with an additional around 110 moderators (of which over 95% were only given the role because there are no VIP slots left and only a handful of real moderators).

   Conclusion:

   It makes no sense to have an unlimited amount of moderator slots while limiting the amount of VIP slots... if there was an actual need for a limit at all, it would make a lot more sense the other way around.
   Either way, I'd like for VIP slots to be unlimited too, or at the very least increase the limit by a lot, I'm talking at least 10x of what it is now, so it is almost impossible to ever be reached when used in a "normal" way.

7. correct viewer count towards affiliate

   several people I speak to during streams are having the same issue, we have 5+viewers but only showing as 1 or 2 making it harder to hit affiliate average of 3, this should either be fixed or taken out of the affiliate system, help smaller streamers to create a small fan base. we stream everyday putting the hours up but the view count down as the stats are incorrect making it impossible to hit what's asked on average.

8. Improved Editor Role

   A channel editor is probably the biggest role any streamer can give a person, but the channel editor can't do as much as they should be allowed to do. A channel editor should be able to do more than just create highlights, run commercials,etc. When a person is promoted to a channel editor, that means the streamer gives them their ultimate trust. So what should an editor be able to do, but can't at this current time? Here are some ideas:

   • Moderate the moderators | Just as any other broadcaster can, a channel editor should be allowed to purge/timeout/ban moderators who are not channel editors. They should also in turn, be able to add/remove moderators. There may be cases where chat gets out of hand with not only the viewers but also some moderators, instead of the broadcaster having to deal with it, the channel editor should be able to so that the broadcaster can continue with his/her stream and not have to worry about chat drama.

   • Edit panels | There are times where streamers want to edit their panels, but either don't have the time to or don't know how to do something in particular. A channel editor should be able to edit the panels the way the broadcaster wants. Maybe there was typo a that looks unprofessional or an outdated piece of information that needs fixing.

   • Submit artwork for partnered streamers | A new emote slot opens up for a partnered streamer, and maybe the streamer isn't in a position to submit a new emote. Why not allow the channel editor to do so for the streamer? That way the new emote comes in right away instead of having to have people wait for a new emote.

   There are other things that could be added to. Along side with this, an editor should have a badge of recognition. That way people know they aren't an ordinary mod.

10. Path to Partner Achievement should consider # Subscribers as an alternative/in addition to Viewers

    Right now, the Path to Partner achievements depend on the number of average concurrent viewers (>75). Some channels have a smaller community but a large amount of monetary support benefiting Twitch. The Path to Partner achievements should be modified to support the high-quality channels that are attracting paying subscribers to Twitch but which might have smaller active viewing communities.

    For example, it might be reasonable for partner status to unlock either at:

    75 viewers and 0 subscriber points
    50 viewers and 25 subscriber points maintained for 3 months
    25 viewers and 50 subscriber points maintained for 6 months

    Rather than keeping average viewers as the sole gold standard, which is easier to fake or briefly profit from with a surge of one-time viewership.

11. Please let us delete Followers!

    Please let us delete Followers. I had some trolls in my channel, creating stupid usernames including my channelname.

    I reported them over a week now and twitch is doing nothing. This accounts still exist....

    I dont want them in my follower list! I dont want them to get a mail, when i go live to remember them "Hej, he is online again, lets get there and troll him again"!
    If someone is trolling, following and gets a mail everytime, when the streamer is going live, he can start over and over to create troll accounts.
    So: PLEASE! Let use remove Followers! THANKS!

12. SUPER MOD

    So each streamer would be allowed to set one person in their stream "SUPER MOD" this person has more permissions than normal mods. For example the SUPER MOD would be allowed to mod and demod people from the stream. Another could be the "SUPER MOD" gets a different badge to make them stand out to the people in chat. Also maybe that super mod gets a permanent subscription for that channel. I'm sure there are alot more ways of making this a better idea that i just haven't though of however i think it would actually be a good thing to think about!

14. Add Deeper Analytics for Ad Revenue

    Right now the analytics page just shows revenue gained from ads. This doesn't paint the entire picture and it's leading streamers to think that bias is occurring in their ad offers. This can be fixed by displaying ad impressions, declined impressions, fill rate, ad pool size for our category, and CPM on the analytics page. Descriptions for each should also be included to explain these mechanics.

    We're offered 55% of ad revenue but have no way to determine what that number is or how it is calculated. This leads to distrust in Twitch and the ads system. Giving streamers a clearer picture of the situation will let us decide how to optimize and earn more while repairing damage done by lack of communication. This benefits both Twitch and the streaming community overall.

    Having two monetized channels I found that one of them was getting 205% more revenue from ads on a per viewer basis. I had no idea why this was happening and none of my provided analytics helped resolve that. With this in mind I reached out to Mike Minton the Chief Monetization Officer at Twitch to discover what was going on. You can read that entire thread here: https://twitter.com/PirateSoftware/status/1640762988809576449

    During that conversation we talked about all of this and I realized how lacking the analytics panel really is for this revenue source. I feel that fixing this will help improve communication regarding ads and dispel a lot of the negative feelings around disparate ad rates between streamers. With Twitch moving towards a more ad centric monetization model this really needs to be implemented.

16. Expanding on channel roles & permissions.

    TL: DR

    Instead of giving someone "editor" or "mod" as a role. Let us give custom permissions to users. (optionally)

    ---

    Long story.

    As someone who has been working on many services/servers like domain servers and game servers like Minecraft Where permission is always a big thing for "users". I would love to see the same here.

    Being able to optionally give custom permission instead of roles or rather to expand on the current roles would be great! As there are only 2 roles currently.
    
    :(

    For example, I do don’t mind if mods can change the title. However, the permission “Editing stream info” is only available to editors. But, also giving them “Running commercial break” and many other permissions. I don’t want that. Among other things. I have no choice now besides using a third party bot. I would prefer first-party support.

    If you really want to outdo yourself, as a cherry on the cake, split up all the “Edit Stream Info“ items for more customization. <3

17. Everyone, followers only, subs only options for past broadcasts, highlights and uploads

    The title says it all. It would be useful to have the option to choose who exactly can watch past broadcasts, as well as highlights and uploads. I believe some affiliates and partners offer special videos that are made specificaly for their subscribers. Unfortunately, this can only be done by restricting the access to the entire VOD librairy.

    Example: I don't want my highlights or my past broadcasts to be restricted just for the purpose of allowing my subs to get exclusive content from the uploading option. But if I would like to make that restriction I would like to be able to choose who exactly can watch those VODs.

    Past Broadcasts ---> Everyone
    Highlights ---> Followers Only
    Uploads ---> Subscribers Only
    Clips ---> Everyone

    Right now, no one can watch anything that is not live on my channel, unless they are subs. In my opinion, past broadcast is a very useful way to get known or to give a good idea of who you are to those who can't watch your content when you're live. And there are plenty other reasons why someone would like to have these options available to them.
