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.

Here's an idea: maybe don't make your "Introducing Creator Chat Highlights" ad brick the whole dang page? That would be great, thanks. It's been the better part of a week and every time I try to check my Stream Manager page that stupid ad is blocking the whole page from being used. Yes, I did all the entry-level attempts to fix the issue; no, none of them worked; and no, no one from Twitch seems to be bothered with answering the people who drive the platform and want to create content.

Oh, and a 70/30 split for the creators while we're at it. It's long overdue and more than fair, considering Amazon owns you.

Whenever I load any page on Twitch, there is a high chance that many page elements won't load, and instead appear as a ghost icon with the text "Failed to load module", or will simply display the spinning circle permanently. The former mostly happens to buttons and menus, while the latter mostly happens to things like the stream video player.

I have to refresh the page upwards of 20 times in order to actually get everything working. It's seriously frustrating, especially when I'm trying to set things up for my stream. The situation is made worse by the fact that every page element can fail at random, so when hitting F5 makes two things start working, another one might stop working.

I've inspected what's going on in the browser's developer console while this happens, and it seems that it's related to Twitch's scripts failing to fetch CSS or JS chunks for various parts of the page in a nonstandard manner.

This is in Mozilla Firefox 91.0 on Manjaro Linux. None of the other websites I've accessed over the last year have had such a problem.

Every time I open the Stream Manager, the Quick Actions panel is reset to the default set of actions. No matter how many times I add my quick actions to start a rerun, run ads etc., they will not be there next time I load the page.

PS Twitch, your UI framework is still broken. "Failed to load module" and endless loading circles everywhere. A "modern" website should not need me to refresh 5000 times to get the functionality working. Stop using buggy custom implementations for everything when the browser gives you good options for free (talking about HTTP fetch for JS and CSS components, for example).

The last week I've been unable to change the category I'm streaming.
I start typing in the category-box on the dashboard, but the popup menu it gives you to click on the specific game you play, doesn't show up. It only shows one line of menu with a rotating circle on it, you know that "thinking" circle when stuff is working on a search or whatever.
If I click on it, the category I put in disappears, as well as the popup with the thinking wheel, so it doesn't stick at all. At the moment I'm stuck in streaming the "N/A" or "nothing" category.
Help?

Hi all!

I am new using twitch and found myself not able to edit tags for a stream from the Creator dashboard >> Content >> Video Producer section.

I did not updated the tags before streaming and it was a different type of game, hence the need to change the tags now.

I am able to Edit the stream, and remove the tags. Then I click Save Changes. But they do not save and go back to what it was.

I wonder if this is working as intended? Does this means I always have to adjust tags before or during the stream because I cannot change then afterwards?
