Currently, Follower Emotes can only be used in the channel they're for, while the user is followed to the channel. This means as a broadcaster, I have to decide between which emotes can't be used anywhere else, and which I can provide to followers to use in my channel without a subscription.

Ideally, it would be nice if subscribers to a channel would be able to use Follower Emotes anywhere on Twitch, as they currently use Subscriber Emotes. This would give an added benefit to subscribers, with additional emotes in other channels, while still allowing followers to use the selected Follower Emotes within your own channel, and no painful decision.

Thank you for your time!

I love the idea of follower emotes! I think it's great way to thank people for supporting the channel and dropping a follow! Personally though I think it would be great if they could be used in all twitch channels though instead of just my own twitch chat. I have raid emotes/heart emotes which I use when raiding and it would be nice if all my followers could have access to these emotes and use these during a raid so they can all use them instead of it feeling as more of a sub only emote. Aside from that great feature, thanks again for implementing it!

The LUL emote is currently a picture of TotalBiscuit, who rose to fame as part of the harassment campaign against both cis and trans women known as GamerGate. TB has, among other things, told a trans woman to go die of cancer. While reality has a nice sense of irony and TB himself died of cancer back in 2018, his sexist legacy lives on in the form of Twitch putting him on the front page of the emotes list for everyone to see, including people like myself who have been on the receiving end of his cult following who literally worked with open Nazis and TERFs to harass me off various social media platforms.

There's no reason to subject trans people to such an iconic sexist transphobe on a regular basis. Twitch changed the pogchamp emoji after finding out the guy was a fascist, so why can't they do the same for LUL? Why do women across the platform have to put up with this?

Please unban the Copesen emote. It's an oxygen tank labelled "copium" which is an imaginary drug, making fun of forsen. Forsen likes to "cope" when he makes mistakes in the minecraft game by saying funny things like "unluckly", or "it's the game's fault". Copium is metaphor, a phyical representation of Forsen's own unwillingness to accept his mistakes. In other words, it's a self-deprecating joke.

It's probably the most popular emote in his chat these days, it's really quite funny. I think it's a bit silly to remove it due to "drugs/drug paraphernalia", because 1) it's not a real drug, it's imaginary, and 2) it's not paraphernalia, it's an oxygen tank labelled "copium".

Please bring it back!

Thank you for your consideration.

It would be cool if you could set a specific amount of time you have to have been followed in order to receive the follower emotes.

Similar to i.e. 10 minute followers only chat, the streamer could be given the option to set a time frame for how long someone has to have been followed to get the emotes! Even better so if you can decide it emote specifically

I think that could incentivize coming back to the channel and adds another reward to community members based on their time in the if the streamer so choses.

If the streamer wanted to, they could give an emote to people who just followed, an emote for 1 month of being a follower, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and a year.
Or an emote for 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1h, 2h, 1 day and so on.

Hello,

As a Twitch Partner getting access to Animated Emotes or .gif Emotes today (6/17/2021) was fantastic. One huge draw that I noticed is that this does not incentivize any subscriber to subscribe at Tier 2 or Tier 3 anymore.

Subscribers now have the most benefits at Tier 1 when all 5 of these slots are placed there.

I would love the opportunity to improve on Sub Emotes by having the ability to move these slots to reward subscribers who donate at a higher tier. This way Subscribers at Tier 2+ do not feel left out. For example: If I was able to take my 5 slots and move 2 to Tier 3 and 2 to Tier 2 this would incentivize them to Subscribe at this higher amount.

I want to make sure I am continuously providing support for subscribers who go out of their way to subscribe at a higher tier. These new emotes slots today all being at Tier 1 disincentivize higher subscriber tiers.

I would be comfortable with this being for partnered creators or something you have to earn for having a different sub count over time. For example, this could be something that you gain with a number of Tier 2 subscribers like affiliates do when they reach for their first 5 emotes. I would be open to any other ideas that people have to improve on this. These are just my first thoughts when thinking about this.
