2000 channels follows limit is too low
Hello, I follow a lot of people on Twitch, a lot of people have not started streaming yet, will probably do it soon or will not stream at all.
I find it impossible that the channel follow limit is 2000 follow.
Please increase the number to at least 10000 channel follows, so that I can follow more than 2000 channels & users.
Even on Youtube there is no channel following limit!
Please increase this, I have to delete users from my channel list all the time, which annoys me a lot.
I also find it very dubious for a streaming platform that there is such a limit at all.
At the moment I can't see which channel I'm following because it's no longer displayed in the browser since Twitch redesigned it.
2000 channels to follow are just too few, please fixt this problem.

The current follow limit is not only low for many viewers, but also problematic for monetized streamers who need to be able to follow each other as part of their networking efforts and channel growth. I'm not talking about follow-for-follow (which we all know doesn't work anyway), but about having the needed follow allowance to be able to practice basic professional courtesies. Good etiquette suggests dropping a follow to a creator who has raided us, following fellow members of our stream teams, following connections we make at TwitchCon, and following streamers with whom we are included on the same collaborations.
Additionally, a lot of us use our following list in order to find someone to raid at the end of our streams. During certain windows of the day, when we're looking to raid a specific category (for example, sticking with a cozy vibe when raiding out from a quiet/cozy stream), it can be difficult to find a creator whom we know well enough to trust with our community. So, when we find a raid target who's a good fit for our community, we want to make sure we're following.
Between streamers we collab with, streamers we raid, streamers we follow for networking purposes, streamer friends whom we support on principle, streamers we follow out of etiquette, and streamers we follow because we regularly watch their stream or want to keep tabs on their channel... the number adds up to 2k real fast.
Please help creators do their job on the platform and support their building healthy networks with other creators by raising this follow limit! Dan Clancy has been hyping the value of collaboration and the future of the platform being rooted in it -- a philosophy which makes the 2k follow limit stand out as having been outdated for quite some time.
Thanks so much for your time in reading and for taking this need into consideration! It's much appreciated.

I join this cause. There should definitely be no limitations on the tracking number.

This absolutely needs to change twitch. For a limit on how we support those who support us back is without doubt a disgrace on a social media platform. Remove this or increase it and be better.

I reckon that as our communities grow or even discover each other, I think it will be very beneficial for us to not have the follower limit as having the limit there really removes the joy of finding new friends on Twitch as it means leaving old friends behind.
There are many platforms out there that do not have this limit but I feel that Twitch can be a better platform by removing the follow limit as 2000 is not enough friends that I want to follow. As a community member: I like to support as many friends as possible.

我覺得可以給使用者付費免費用戶1000數量,付費每擴大1000數量(每個國家價格不一樣)
1000$換1000數量 累積下來,另外可以用你追隨的台 很久沒開台建議取消清單 -

Please allow to be able to follow more channels then 2000. I find it low.
To make it not abuseable how about streamers can follow more people?
So they can make more friends and network/grow. you removed friends.
There got to be a doable way to allow for more following of people on twitch.
Id like to support more people but cant from 2000 limit. please consider this. I want to be able to follow all the streamers I enjoy watching/supporting etc. -

That's how you live for 8 years on twitch. You have a 2000 limit to add channels to favorites ! I want the Twitch platform to remove these restrictions !

I've been a twitch viewer since the site started and I've run out of follows. I have to unfollow from people I've followed in the past in order to follow new people I find which is really unfair to OG users. I feel like I almost have to start a new account at this point in order to enjoy Twitch again because of this hardcap.

I've been on twitch since it started and I've run out of follows, I have to unfollow people that I followed in order to follow new people at this point, and it's totally unfair to older customers that want to follow new streamers they find.

I never knew there was a limit till today, and im highly upset and annoyed that a limit exists. it's frustrating and unfair, Twitch please allow us more wiggle room on the number of streamers we can follow!!!! this needs more upvotes and attention/complaints cuz its really rediculous.

Please make the follow limit unlimited. I have reached the limit, but I discover new streamers every day that I want to support.

Why does the limit exist? Doesn't Twitch benefit from people following as many channels as possible? There is a way you can go over the limit. Your subs don't count but will downgrade to a follow if you don't renew your subscription.
