  1. Subs get different badges the longer they are subscribed. Why don't MODS get different colored swords or different swords entirely the longer they are a mod?? If someone is in a chat and sees a mod with a sword showing they have lots of experience that person may be less likely to do or say something dumb knowing an experienced mod is in chat. Also there aren't enough mods to cover all streams so this would be a nice little thing to do for the mods. I have 500 hours in as a mod, it would nice to be recognized…

  2. I think you guys should make a global chat badge for affiliates like how partners have one. Just like partners we work really hard to get affiliate. So i think we should also have our own chat badge.

  3. Allow you to enable or disable whether if your badge should be automatically changed to a newly unlocked badge, such as Bits badge, Gifted sub badge or Hype Train badge.

    Often it becomes annoying when you have your favourite badge but you also like support your creator and you get a new badge causing your chosen badge to be changed. Even when having the option to have a custom badge on a specific channel that is not your globally set badge.

  4. Why?: To keep creators creating content and spending less time managing emotes

    How:

    Easy: Implement a field on the emote information to add info like "Halloween" or "Christmas" so we can filter emotes by seasons when changing seasonal emotes

    Hard: Program the dashboard to automatically swap emotes based on dates, that way once the emote get's uploaded the creator can designate a date or dates for when the emote should be active.

  5. How is it possible that channels can use twerk emotes but when I do it it is rejected and the reason is just rubbish and have nothing to do with the emote

  6. Choose emotes from the list of all emotes currently available to the user and add them to a favorites list displayed at the top the emote selection pane.
    Scrolling through lists of emotes is not user friendly and frequently used emotes do not satisfy the same need.
    This would be a major quality of life improvement for desktop but especially for mobile users.

  7. enable larger file sizes for animated emotes. Most animations even if small in canvas size, get bigger in file size very fast.

  8. I know custom prefixes are only avaliable for partners and I respect that, but autogenerated names for prefixes trend to be so wrong, so I suggest to be able to select what part of your username you want as emote prefix, for example:

    If your username is "JustAnnie" your emote prefix may be "Just444" or even worse.
    Everytime you change your username or the first time you receive the affiliate Twitch should allow you to select in a text selector what part of your username you want to use as your name and let you to set an autogenerated prefix…

  9. Allow us to upload custom badges for subs and gift leaderboard. Doing so will allow us to uniquely differentiate in various chats and would help to match the aesthetics of existing badges and emotes a channel uses.

  10. There needs to be a possibility to search sub emotes by emote code. Previously twitchemotes.com offered that functionality but that got removed.

    Being able to search for sub emotes by their code (for example when you need a new "Frustrated"-emote because this feature not existing frustrates you) helps viewers find emotes they like and can help especially smaller streamers who might stay undiscovered otherwise to get brand new subscribers.

  11. It would be cool if there were some way to unlock emotes from past events (maybe with a moratorium period of half a year or something). Heck, I'd pay a buck-per to get some of the RPG emotes that everyone seems to have or to fill out my incomplete collection of pride emotes.

  12. I don't understand why you would allow custom tier names for subscribers but not have custom badges for them?
    Example, if I named my tier 1 Apples and I named my tier 2 Bananas I'd want to have apple and banana badges for them respectively

  13. As a streamer I want to be able to give an "I was there LIVE" badge to current viewers of my stream.

    Often something is accomplished live on stream that maybe significant to the respective community. By adding this badge it allows the streamer to 'officially' designate who was watching when that event occured.

  14. Calling it something like "twitchNN", the net neutrality spinner could be used in general conversation to suggest that it's going to take time for your thought to finish, and to remind people that net neutrality is an important issue that needs to be defended.

    Examples:
    Waiting on my pizza. twitchNN
    Considering your statement. twitchNN
    It might take me a while. twitchNN

  15. For partners & affiliates working with artists. It's often very difficult to tell if something will scale down well, look good in both default and dark mode, etc. I did find one tool to test emotes ( https://pajlada.se/projects/test-emote/ ), but it's extremely limited, doesn't offer dark mode, etc.

    A preview platform in the upload window would be incredible.

  17. Can we get the BleedPurpleHD emote as a badge too? It's by far my favorite emote and it's sooo **** cool I really wish I could have it as a badge to show off all the time.

  18. Hello Twitch staff!

    Please start allowing us to use WEBP and WEBM for images and animations. I'm not just talking about emotes. I'm talking about banners and panels too.

    These are substantially smaller file sizes for Twitch to host. It's a win for you and a win for us!

    As a professional artist it's very difficult to animate with your file size restrictions. Please unlock WEBP and WEBM for us in 2025.

    Thank you for your consideration of my idea.

  19. You have "Frequently Used" which is nice, but having a favourite list would be amazing. This way they can have a little library of what they like the most (even if they don't use them often).

    This will help remind them of the awesome emotes they like the most and maybe used them more in response, but also any channels that are no longer subscribed to will become more obvious if your favourite emotes start being greyed out.

  20. It would be nice if viewers could choose their displayed sub badge tier to match it with other badges they have or match it with their name color. It's something that should be optional, just like other badges.
