It would be fun as a watcher to be able to interact with voice on stream

i think it's good for engagement, but i'm not quite sure about the "tax" thing sorry not quite understand

imagine it would look like NASA's channel. there are channel points for engagement, but no subscribe button

Scenario: Twitch channel run by multiple people in a community where they centralize events. The channel meets all of the Affiliate requirements, however does not want to obtain Affiliate in order to avoid singing a single person's tax information to that community account. Is it possible to apply/gain the affiliate advantages such as Channel Points for this account? I suggest having an option somewhere to Apply.

+1 all arguments are correct

Some of the features such as channel/loyalty points and other viewer interactions that aren't specifically monetization based (or could have a beginner/unmonetized version) could really help new streamers build/retain the audience they need to make Affiliate. It also gives a new streamer a chance to play around with what works for them before they get to affiliate so they can hit the ground running, so to speak.

Muito bom

in senso che anche le altre persone che tipo hanno 10 follower, o nel mio caso 8, possano mettere gli streaming points

i have 894 followers but only 2.06 viewers so if i had channel points then i could get people to stay in the stream so i can get affiliate

I am a disadvantaged streamer, i am a mute and so interacting with my stream despite being very small is challenging and sometimes quite stressful as i would like to make my channel as interactive as possible for people to enjoy without the need of a voice to occupy the space that it normally does. +1

The reason why I think it's a great idea is because of how impactful it can really be, it may not seem like a feature that will help you grow but it will definitely help the stream by making it more interactive and more engaging with you and your viewers.

I don't see why something so simple could be locked away behind affiliation and partnership. I know that getting affiliation is not that hard but I know tons of people who just don't want affiliation but they want the channel points.
Channel points should be available for everyone or at least limit the things you can do with channel points for non-affiliates.

Ik kan geen kanaalpunten gebruiken omdat ik niet genoeg volgers heb. Maar ik wil wel graag kanaalpunten aan mijn kanaal toevoegen. Ik denk dat meer mensen dit probleem ook hebben. Kunnen jullie een functie maken zodat mensen met minder volgers (zoals ik) ook kanaalpunten kunnen toevoegen? Groetjes Levi (levigoedel op Twitch)

+1, I am also for all streamers being able to enable Channel Points. Many people are eligible, but choose to opt-out of Partner and Affiliate for a plethora of reasons.

Channel Points for all Streamers.

Please make that all Streamers can use the Channel Points. Channel Points are a good way to communicate with the Community and the Features are very good.

I just want to know...

Se me hace absurdo que gente sin afiliado no pueda tener los puntos si es una recompensa por ver al streamer y apoyarlo

ATTIVARE I PUNTI CANALE PER TUTTI QUANTI ANCHE I NON ABBONATI

Devolver los puntos de canal por una serie de requisitos inferiores a afiliado o socio. Hay mucha gente que no quiere monetizar twitch y no es justo que tengan que cumplir dichos requisitos para ello.

for lots of affilates they get all the requirements except that average of 3 viewers i think the non affliates could unlock affiliate faster cause know the viewers are more ecouraged to watch the stream this is just a idea but i think it would make a lot easier for non affilates to get affilate that way

Let every little creator be able to create channel points, not just a step
