  2. Discord has ephemeral messages for specific actions that only the person doing that action can see.

    Having a similar system for users redeeming rewards would prevent the chat from spamming with the rewards where no one can now chat, but would also allow viewers to notice that rewards have been redeemed.

    Additionally, these messages could also be sent back to a user when a channel point reward is marked as unfulfilled. This would allow services using the API to send a message along when they are unable to fulfill the reward.

    An example of a rejection message with Crowd Control…

  3. A chat message on Twitch is limited to 500 characters. This same limitation is applied to redeems that requires the user to input text.

    Let the streamer be allowed to choose a custom max limit on a reedem like this, which is useful for when you redeem a phrase to be read by the streamer. When a limit like this is set, a character counter can be displayed when typing.

    Like for polls, there could possibly also be an option to be allowed to "purchase" additional blocks for points (done automatically). For example, say a phrase redeem costs 500 points,…

  4. An option to pick who can use your channel point redeems would be nice. Like, everyone vs followers only vs subs only. And, perhaps, making it more clear if you can ban individual accounts from your channel points would be nice too. I don't want someone with a chat ban spamming redeems or taking them up so our followers/non banned users can't use them.

  6. I don't know if this is an original take but why not make a channel points ranking that can be seen at the top of chat or something? I think that sort of thing would give incentive for viewers interact and gain points past using them. There are plenty of streamers who don't have interesting enough channel points rewards and I end up stockpiling them. It would be nice to display them past big bet wins. It would also fit the cheesy "gaming" theme.

  7. Twitch has recently decided to discriminate its users based on where they are from.

    If you are from a "restricted region" you can not participate in channel polls. Or as they put it, you can but you can only put zero points. Which is more salt to the insult.

    It would be awesome for Bezos owned Twitch to stop being a hub for discriminating people based on their origin and actually respect human kind.

  8. May we please have a feature to collect channel points from more than 2 streams? I just found out that this is a limitation, and I've had multiple streams open almost every day.

  9. Since both IRC PRIVMSG events and PubSub/EventSub events are triggered for Channel Point redeems that include text, it would be really nice to be able to match them together using a unique ID.

    While the redemption reward ID does match the 'custom-reward-id' tag of the PRIVMSG, which lets you at least match the redeem type, it'd be really nice to be certain the events are identical. You can kind of estimate a match using timestamps and/or user id & message contents, but there are potential cases where mismatches and conflicts could occur.

    The easiest option would be to make the…

  11. It is not that big of a change but it still bugs me. This will more likely be a quality of life kind of change.i always saw channel points in K(like 15K points) but after I have changed my mobile, could be cuz I am Indian and we use thousands to count but it changed to T(15T). I just liked the good ol K and I did not find any way to revert it or change it. Would be nice if you have a standard of representation,or if that is not possible, give us a feature to change how to…

  12. I don't want the channel points themselves.
    So I wish there was a feature to disable channel points from increasing.
    I also wish there was a feature to zero channel points.

  13. I see too many channels with duplicated rewards.

    Examples:
    -sound alert: scream, sound alert: knock knock, ...
    -make me wear a lutin hat, make me wear a pirate hat, ...

    Sometimes the streamer has the idea to give all the possible choices in the description of one rewards, but it makes big descriptions, and it is not always possible when they are handled by an app. Moreover the viewer may forget to write what choice he wants.

    My idea is to be able to propose several options for each rewards, and when a viewer want to buy it he would…

  16. Some of us like to watch our favorite streamers on the big TV so being able to earn channel points while watching on our console app and that would also benefit the people who want to watch that don't have a PC and also don't want to watch on their mobile device.

  17. Since streamers can't give channel points directly to their community, I think they should be able to contribute to their Community Challenges themselves.

    That way, a streamer could reward a viewer (for instance after completing a minigame, like answering a trivia question) by donating points to the Community Challenge of their choosing. Since streamers have infinite channel points, this also allows them to complete a challenge early without refunding the points.

    This should obviously be available only for the challenges that the streamer creates, not the ones provided by Twitch like the "Boost this stream" challenge.

  18. I think an option to add bits/cheers into the channel points redeemables would be a welcomed addition. It would help the support Twitch and Streamers. There are bots that already use channel points redeemables in conjunction with an overlay system, such as MixItUpApp, which allows overlays (images, videos, text, etc) to be displayed on the stream using a local browser source. Mixer had a similar setup when you spent their version of bits (embers), but their overlay was in-house and had videos that played showering embers, shark eating embers as it went by, trains going by with embers dropping etc.…

  19. It will be a manual action by the streamer and not automatic so as to counteract channel point farming, and can only be done by the streamer.

  20. When you predict with a custom number of channel points, you have to type a number in the field and press the "vote" button. Would be great if you could submit your prediction by pressing the Return or Enter key.
