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.

As someone who has previously accidentally deleted a chunk of clips by clicking on the wrong check box (being the main one that selects a bunch of clips), I 100% absolutely agree with this idea! And yes, while I realize they give you a "are you sure" prompt after you click on the delete button, there are instances where people don't realize they're deleting a chunk and not the one or two clips they originally selected. A nice little "clips will be deleted after one hour" mechanic would do wonders from saving clips being accidentally lost forever.

Wait, does it STILL do this? I'm too afraid to check.

Would be great to add a prompt to confirm deletion of clips so the user has the ability to opt out. If this is not an option, then please provide some documentation on Twitch supported tools that can be used to retrieve/restore deleted clips.

Just did this as well. I selected my clips and then went to the WORDS that say “delete all videos”, assuming it means the ones I have selected. Didn’t even see that dumb little trash can icon.
This “feature” should be built into deleting a profile….or far farrrrrr away. How often does a creator need to nuke their entire video presence?!
I’m so upset right now.

Surely they could make a dialogue box pop up with "are you sure?" And a "yes/no" option.

I'm disappointed how easy it is to mistakenly delete all your clips. Thought i clicked on an individual clip to delete and lost 3 years of clips. How hard would it be to move deleted clips to a 'deleted' folder? You could at least recover what you accidentally lost. smdh
edit: And this is an issue posted back in 2020! Come on twitch.. do better.

As a person who accidentally did this recently with clips, I kinda wish this was there or just a recovery system. Most of the older clips I had by accidentally mass deleting clips and it instantly just deleting without a time span of when it is going to be deleted hurts.
Hopefully: either a time span of deleting clips so you can reconsider is an option or just have a recovery system.
Or another idea would be able to look into the “trashed” clips and recover them similar to an iPhone deleting photos kind of idea and if you don’t do anything in a certain amount of days then it is fully deleted.

This is a great idea!
Additionally, it would be neat for it to be possible to protect (multiple checked) clips and/or videos from being deleted in this way, requiring them to first have protection removed before deletion.
An idea which Linus of Linus Tech Tips had is to limit destructive options by requiring the user to confirm mass deletion with 2FA. "Are you sure about this? Are you really you?"
I also like the idea of an opt-in two-person confirmation for mass deletion so that if the channel owner or an editor has their account hacked, someone can block deletions until such time that control of the account is regained.
As we've seen, 2FA doesn't always keep malicious actors from doing damage, session tokens can be stolen. Being able to restore deleted content in a situation like that makes a lot of sense.

THIS!!! I've been clipping for only around 2 years but I have over 4k clips and to lose them would be the worst thing I could ever do. I've always been extra weary when it comes to deleting clips because of this fear but knowing that there could be a backup would ease up my worries so much. It's been 2 years since this idea was posted please do implement it!!
