Removing Bit Emotes
In a perfect world, everyone would be friends and get along. However for various reasons people sometimes leave communities they have earned bit emotes in. Then the bit emotes remain forever as a constant reminder. People should have the ability to remove bit emotes from certain streamers.

Please make this happen, rather than wasting time and resources in rejecting the most innocent and least offensive emotes upon upload. Clearly your priorities are not in order.

Is anyone at Twitch even reading/considering this? It is such a simple measure that would make life a LOT more pleasant on Twitch for myself and numerous mods/listeners! We have discussed this in chat on several occasions and dozens more agree that this is something LONG overdue.

I’m coming back on to see whether this feature has FINALLY been implemented. There are 3 radio dots just waiting for the remove emote option. Let’s make these emotes from undesired/trigger-inducing streamers disappear once and for all. Thank you!

Yep, asking for this as well.

Yes please!! I have bit emotes from a streamer I used to support but turned extremely toxic and seeing his emotes just reminds me of bad times. Please let us disable them!

This is a needed option.

it is crazy to me that this was submitted 4 YEARS ago and it has not been implemented. Please please please Twitch, lets us remove/hide emotes we don't want to see in our emote list!

This has been a desired feature for a couple years now. I’ve got a couple people who I no longer associate with due to really nasty falling outs and their emotes still pop up when I go to use either my own or other channels. It’s a nigh constant reminder of the people who hurt me and my friends and even though I’ve blocked and unfollowed them their emotes still show up in my lists. Using the block feature to remove bit emotes would be the easiest implementation with as little UX impact as possible.

Twitch / Amazon - we need to be able to remove some bit emotes from streamers we no longer associate with, streamers that ditched us since the world opened back up, etc.

You describe it perfectly, and it sucks that you can't remove them - even if you have the streamer blocked. You should have the ability to remove them or permanently hide them.

Hey Twitch! It would be amazing to have a feature where you can remove or hide emotes that we dont wanna use and have control over it. I been in a relationship with a streamer for 6 years and i got 3 bit emotes and I'm constantly reminded of him! He even post new profile pictures that shows up with his emotes when I'm trying to use other streamers. Please please please let us have control of our emotes

Hey developers! I had a thought.
Currently, if you block someone and they follow you, it causes them to unfollow you.
What about an additional effect where if you block someone, their bit emotes are removed?
This would mean not having to build an emote removal UI and whatever structural changes and API changes that may entail.
Another advantage would be if I were the streamer and someone decided they wanted me to unexist enough to block me, I wouldn't want them to go around using my emotes anyway.

It's a bit ridiculous that this feature hasn't been added yet, look at all the troubled people in the comments begging Twitch to add this. Let us block bit emotes from people we no longer wish to associate with!

i can offer a workaround if you use ublock origin. use the picker tool to remove the emote you don't want to see. it writes an individual filter to your preferences and disables loading of that image url.
of course this will not work if you're on mobile and use the app.

Being able to control and organize what emotes you have available to you would be a powerful improvement to stream chat experience across the platform. If not this, then at LEAST provide the ability to automatically remove any and all emotes, bit emotes included, from a user you've blocked. After all, if you're given the ability to cut interaction with a user, shouldn't that also mean any content of theirs available outside their channel?
It really is a shame this suggestion has been up for more than 2 years with relatively consistent comments, yet with no attention spared...

An Option in the settings like hide all bit badge emotes would be great and enable it off or on would be a great option if possible.

Please do this. I have to see the emotes from my abusive ex fiancé every time I try to look through my emotes. The option to hide or remove them would be a real blessing to stop flashbacks.
