Watch Streak Resetting Despite Not Missing Streams
It is incredibly disheartening to have created the goals of reaching at least a 100 watch streak on your favorite streamers only to have all of your watch streaks reset on the same day, presumably due to either work on the system or a bug.
I'd rather not have watch streaks if you aren't capable of keeping them tallied accurately.

This happens all the time. I delete all my cookies, clear the cache, restart the computer and twitch still refuses to acknowledge that I am watching the stream.

I just lost a 30+ stream streak despite not missing any streams.
Incredibly frustrating and I have no way to fix it.
If Twitch can't keep track of them right then what is the point of having them??

I've had almost ALL of my streaks reset on all streams I watch. I just joined a stream with my streak saying 1 more for the next checkpoint and 15 minutes in it reset to 1.
At this point I don't bother trying to get streaks anymore which means I don't bother catching EVERY stream anymore.
At the beginning I was very very gung-ho about building streaks on all streamers that I watch making it a point to watch at least 30-60 minutes of each stream, now sometimes I see someone streaming and just think meh... Thanks Twitch -

I was just about to hit a 200 watch streak in one of my favourite channels. Got into stream today, only to find out it got reset back to 1 - even though I haven't missed a single stream. And from what I've read, Twitch won't do anything to reinstate watch streaks, but instead just close all tickets submitted when someone complains about it.
Good job making viewing more enjoyable by giving us goals that we can't even keep, Twitch.

I'm in the channel I moderate right now and what should be a 90 stream streak is now a 1 stream streak - which really sucks because I haven't missed a single stream since 2022.

I just had it happen during a stream, like I came in at start of stream with watch streak intact and then I had to refresh the page cause stream kept lagging and it reset my streak...

It has happened to me multiple times, but only for one specific streamer. I know I didn't miss a stream either.

I had it happen to me THREE times, twice on a single channel, and once on another, losing a 20+ watch streak, a 35+ one, and a 75+ another! This system is a broken mess and Twitch does jack about it!

I too had this happen to me I was on stream #72 when the streamer said on thier discord they were having tech issues and said even though it would tell them they went live it didn't actually stream so when they finally got it to work and my notification popped up when I clicked on it there was nothing it just said last stream was today. Had no idea how it would be over in the 30 seconds it took for me to see the notification read it click.it and the app to open. They finally got it working an hour later I joined saw my 72 when first joining so thought it was all good the system must have realized there was no actual stream but when my points came in it said my streak was 1 because I missed a stream.

Same thing happened to me. Was at nearly 90 on a channel, went to the streamer when they first started and saw my same number. Since I was at work, went away for an hour with the stream still up. I come back and for whatever reason I got reset. Stream was still up, streamer confirmed they didn't have a disconnect. A bit disheartening and makes the stream another meaningless thing on the platform. I understand things break, but when you have no choice in fixing it then it just sucks.

I also had a watch streak reset out of nowhere (69 streams, nice!) for seemingly no reason. Checking the vods of the streamer, I'm seen chatting throughout, certainly in the stream long enough to have the streak continue... only to have it reset on his most recent streams.
If we can't get the system to work, or have tools available to return the streak where it was, it's incredibly discouraging and makes me not want to watch at all.
