Failed to load module, and endless loading
Whenever I load any page on Twitch, there is a high chance that many page elements won't load, and instead appear as a ghost icon with the text "Failed to load module", or will simply display the spinning circle permanently. The former mostly happens to buttons and menus, while the latter mostly happens to things like the stream video player.
I have to refresh the page upwards of 20 times in order to actually get everything working. It's seriously frustrating, especially when trying to join a stream quickly (e.g. with a raid) or refresh a channel. The situation is made worse by the fact that every page element can fail at random, so when hitting F5 makes two things start working, another one might stop working.
I've inspected what's going on in the browser's developer console while this happens, and it seems that it's related to Twitch's scripts failing to fetch CSS or JS chunks for various parts of the page in a nonstandard manner.
This is in Mozilla Firefox 95.0.2 on Manjaro Linux. None of the other websites I've accessed over the last two years have had such a problem.

This just started happening to me a week or two ago :( . I'm not even a creater. I'm just trying to access the website to watch streams /sadface.
I don't even know where to start. I have no clue what all this means. Help???? And I can't even direct contact twitch because it doesn't fall into any category.

I ran into this issue on OBS and here's how I got it to work.
1. Go to twitch on your browser and open your stream manager.
2. Look at where it says "My Chat" and go all the way to the right and click on
those 3 dots.
3. Click "Pop Out Chat" and copy the link that shows up.4. Go to OBS and click on the "Docks" tab on the top of the screen.
5. Click "Custom Browser Docks"
6. For the name you can just put "Chat" or whatever you'd like.
7. Paste the URL that you got from the twitch Pop Out listed in step 3.
8. Move the new Dock wherever you'd like.
You can do this with all of the other docs that show up on your stream manager like the "Activity Feed" or the "Quick Actions" so I hope this helps!
I recently had this problem where it would show the ghosts talking about "Failed to load module" and I remember looking everywhere online (including here) for the solution to no avail. I just thought I'd come back and spread the knowledge because I couldn't really find it anywhere else. I don't really keep up with these forums, so if you have any questions about this message and I'm live you can hit me up and I should be able to help! TTv AJKingOD

I'm on Firefox and just had this happen to me, the videos on the front page feature wheel were all fine but as soon as I tried to go to a stream, endless loading. Went to my browser cache and deleted all cookies from just Twitch. Closed out my Twitch tabs, reopened them and logged back in and it was fixed. GL to all, hope this may help.

This same issue it back again for only Firefox. I love how this bug keeps reappearing for people.
Already read through the earlier comments and tried the previous fixes but none of them work anymore. -

This started happening to me about a week or two ago and has been an issue almost every time I hop on Twitch now. Missing some elements like the title or notifications, getting the ghost "Failed to load module" in the chat, taking forever to load, etc. No adblocker (I have turbo), tried a VPN and without, and I cleared my cache to no avail.

Ive been having this issue on Firefox but not Chrome so i was messing in FireFox's settings and i finally got the modules that weren't loading to load when i cleared all cookies and cache from just twitch.
I also disabled the "Deceptive Content and Dangerous Software Protection" but i dont think that's what fixed my issues.

This just started happening to me. Chrome and it fills up a bit of my chat. Alerts sometimes work but not always. Tried all of the suggested things to fix it and it still persists. Can we get a fix soon or..?

Im having this same thing happen on Opera GX, so i'm thinking its totally a twitch issue. This issue seems to have been a thing since September and we are almost in June. Hope this is resolved soon
New issue: I think the failure is now making it so I can't join raids by other streamers. I just stay in their channel while they all raid 🤣

As of 04/28/2024 I'm having this issue. Can't seem to watch other accounts stream, nor load my own channel page, issue is also affecting OBS. Stream info loaded fine but getting the same "module failed to load" error when I try to pull chat

Yes I can confirm that this is still an ongoing issue nearing the end of April 2024.
This is something that can't be fixed client side, it clearly is an issue related to Twitch not being able to provide packets at the moment it gets requested.Clearing your browser cache, flushing your IP, restarting your router, installing other browsers.... none of these work. I've tried every single thing I could think of and it can't fix this issue. It's as if Twitch is in SLOW Mode.
Weird that this issue became more wide spread as soon as 4K streaming started rolling out. It's as if there is a network bottleneck that they aren't aware of at certain Amazon data centers ?

Still an ongoing issue. Twitch is dying off apparently. They do not care about this issue.
