I just noticed the recent changes to people setting raids after a stream how the requirement is now pushed to minimum of 5 viewers and over. I have to say this in REALLY bad, because this hurts smaller streamers who might not have that many viewers watching their channel, only to see their own raids turn into hosts instead. This essentially cripples streamers ability to be noticed when they raid someone after finishing a stream, it was already bad enough when you crippled it so that people can't raid/host channels from 1 viewer, which is fine I guess, but to change the requirement to 5 viewers is bad overall.

I want to recognise the people who raid into me even if their viewership isn't that big, I don't want to see someone just show up as a host to my streams when they set a raid. it just makes their raids seem less significant. This is something that needs to be reverted to how it was before.

I keep seeing stupid changes like these being made on Twitch that make no sense at all without any careful consideration of what it ends up doing to streamers as a result. Case in point like how you were gonna force mid-roll ads on streams, and immediately people pointed out how bad that is.

Those of us who are older or are just sitting far away from the screen sometimes have problems reading the text because it is so in ridiculously small. The ability to increase the size of the fonts for those panes (and the top bar, too) would be invaluable. Currently, I'm having to use Chrome's inspector panel to hack the size of the fonts but I have to do that each time I load up the page. Font size adjustment as a built in feature (especially if it saves my font sizes for me) is a serious need for some of us. Thanks.

I been seeing a ton of people raiding under 5 viewers as due to a recent change, they don't show up. I feel that that little action that says "all raids " in the settings under channel should be all raids, not only 5 or more ( if it is gonna be 5 or more maybe make it a setting "5 or more raiders" . I feel streamers should be the one to choose if this is a change is something for their channel.

That's my personal opinion I just feel horrible not seeing someone raid when and due to API for Stream labs / Stream elements pulling from the chat ends up not showing it when it does happen.

Limit hosts from showing up in chat unless they have 2 viewers would be another thing as well, since the only way they will have any viewers is if the channel is live at the time or it will show 0-1 viewers.

I did want to say as well since I did see the tweet about raid bot attacks on twitter that it wasn't raids it was host attacks to clear up on that little bit.

My idea would be make it so channels can't raid unless they are Live at the time of raiding that would clear up the bot issue if they are doing raids. ( link to twitch support tweet - https://twitter.com/TwitchSupport/status/1313975539682684929?s=20 )

Thank you for reading this bit of feedback and hope ya have an amazing day!

I primarily have been streaming Mixer because of the built in capabilities via my console. However rather then heavyweight programs like streamlabs, obs, etc.. that drain you of valuable network resources I stream my mixer feed to "Lightstream" and then can apply overlays, and third party extensions via that.

Twitch needs to design and implement a system such as this one e.g. "Cloud Based" thru the browser that will open the gateway for console streamers to do professional streams on Twitch without need all the useless BS such as streamlabs and obs and such. Make it simple, allow people to send their twitch feed into the cloud based streaming studio apply their overlays and extensions and then display that new source from their on twitch with all their modifications to it.

This is exactly what mixer does with lightstream for the xbox one streamers and console streamers and it allows the masses to quickly and seamlessly go live with a professional overlay and not all the **** software.
