Have "Store past broadcasts" Option Checked from the Get Go!
I just finished my very first stream ever, and I had a viewer who had to leave shortly before it ended and wanted to watch it tomorrow. But when I went to look for it, it was gone because my option to store past broadcasts wasn't checked. Now it's lost forever, and it's all because of that **** setting! Please set it to "on" as the default so that future streamers don't have to go through this as well.

I don’t know why this isn’t automatically enabled because I’m new to twitch but I just lost my first ever twitch stream vod because I didn’t know I had to MANUALLY enable it. I’m brand new to twitch and have no clue how it works so for me to have to search every settings to save replays instead of assuming it’s automatically saved which would make tons more sense but no it’s gone and I had no clue and I’m sure countless other new people have had this happen so here is a super easy fix
Just make it automatically save instead of ha big to enable that way there is so possible loss
Loosing 4 hours of content I wanted to use because I wasn’t informed how this works is very annoying. Unless I missed something this is a very bad system. I’d hate for more people to have to face this because it’s sad loosing your first stream and potentially good content
