  2. Added the ability for viewers to choose the volume of the different audio tracks in the stream. Sometimes as viewers we just want to hear the streamer's voice and not necessarily the game sound. Would it be possible to implement a solution that would allow the viewer to adjust the different audio tracks?

  3. Many streams are too quiet, making them unwatchable. Viewers struggle to communicate this clearly, e.g., "audio feels off" (uh, it's on, what do you mean?), "it's too quiet" (what specifically is quiet??). Many times it causes chat derailments or arguments.

    If Twitch doesn't want to give us tools to automatically do volume rebalancing and checking (the best approach), then I suggest this alternative--

    We need AT MINIMUM two simple, universal emotes added to Twitch’s default set:

    Increase Game Volume (🎮⬆️) – The game audio is too low.
    Increase Mic Levels (🎙️⬆️) – The streamer’s mic is too quiet.

    These emotes…

  4. Can we undo this terrible TikTok style UI on mobile, I can’t find anything and I don’t want to immediately be put into a stream when I open the app. It’s annoying and searchability is terrible. The UI that was there from early 2024 and before was better

  5. The inclusion of animated channel avatars is honestly excessively stimulating and makes it very difficult to navigate the page. Right now, I have to go digging through genres I never knew existed just to tell Twitch not to recommend to me a channel because it's using a frantically animated avatar that makes it difficult to check my favorites panel.

    I would appreciate it if there was an option to either (A) disable animated channel avatars, or (B) disable suggested channels. Either of these ND-friendly options would allow me to use the favorites panel again.

  6. the emote rain thats triggered by certain events (like on raids, follows, subs, etc.) containing some twitch emotes and channel emotes in all colors and sizes, overlaying the chat, follow list and everything else around the stream player, can be visually so much overwhelming that i have to look away to not get a seizure or something

    therefore i'd like to suggest an option to disable that emote rain

    alternatively at least limit the raining emotes to the area of the stream player, so that the surrounding elements are not overlaid and provide a visually stable (non-flickering) framing

    this emote…

  7. I want to hang out in streams, but sometimes the streamer's music is just too oppressive, and my brain can't handle it.

    It would be nice to be able to SILENCE their music track.

    Since Twitch allows streamers to setup a separate music track in OBS anyway, this should be possible.

    Just let me choose to switch to the track that's already being saved to the VOD.

  8. Please allow affiliates to join the ambassador program. Affiliates have different views and goals than partners. There are many reasons we decide to stream. Some include to make a difference, or to connect with others that have a similar interest. Another is just to play games socialize and have a good time. The platform also allows for all kinds of self expression. All partners start out as affiliates, and some of us will never reach partner status. We need representation that will meet our own needs and goals. I feel that the ambassador program should be open to affiliate and…

  9. The video player on the new mobile app has a muddy/ blurred border around it. I have vision issues and its causing bloom issues that are making it impossible to actually See the stream I am watching. Its especially bad in landscape mode. The old black border it had on it was perfect, it didn’t have a ton of bloom and I could watch easily. Also, the menu to get to following has a really small hit box. Please just revert back to the old ui, it was accessible and was perfect how it was.

  12. I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this, but over the last 3 weeks or so when I try to scroll down on the followed channels bar with the collapsable bar on the side, then try to click on a channel it auto scrolls to either the top of the bar or bottom at random. This is extremely annoying when I am trying to go to the view more option or click on any stream in general. I scroll on the the collapsable bar > move mouse to the item I am trying to click > click, and in…

  13. 2024 from the Desk of the New Horizens Nation Rights Advocacy Leadership Chair( from 2023.

    Facts before the law:

    The official world court of Justice; the Number of citizenship requests to join our country is in from the year 2020.

    4.5 billion out of 6 billion (eligible to address the World Court of Justice)

    275 million from USA.

    Sorry twitch executives you have been outvoted and the 100 senators have no say. We have accepted their change of country request. as of 2020

  14. A lot of creators on Twitch have had their content. artwork, even brand name, stolen and reused by bots, and malicious users. There is currently no way to report these. I personally have tried multiple ways in the last year to get multiple accounts removed with no success because no department wants to take responsibility for this, and there are hundreds, possibly thousands of accounts that are bot created mimics of streamer accounts. Can we not have an easy way to report these account mimics (many of which are just dormant to possibly be used later for something more malicious).…

  15. Hello everyone,

    I think an improvement in the user view could take place. That he can personalize the interface (as a moderator can do) to for example change the location of the chat (left instead of right) hide unwanted displays (suggestion, what other viewers are watching, list of channels followed).

    Possibly be able to classify these streamers by category, favorites etc.

    I hope others share the same opinion as me.

    Best regards.

  16. Closed captions should be a built in feature across all of Twitch. CC should also have the ability to be shared on other collab Twitch streams for deaf streamers to see what others are saying.

    ADDITIONALLY:

    Many deaf and hard of hearing people that watch streams, play video games and even want to stream feel discouraged to stream because they can’t communicate with others efficiently.

    There’s a new software called E-nterpreters made specifically for deaf gamers to communicate with others. E-interpreters is a gaming tool to convert voice calls into sign language to ensure deaf and hard of hearing players…

  19. Hi everyone
    I suggest create API request to get active twitch drops, like:
    {Company, Name, StartDate, EndDate}
    or something else
    Based on this, developers of client applications will be able to make TwitchDrops notifications based on the preferences of the user or the discord server
    I'm sure it's easy to do and doesn't have any downsides.
