Convert usernames in stream title to hyperlinks to their Twitch page
Currently streamers have to add custom commands to their bot for every streamer they are streaming with. Example !username !username2 and when viewers are using those commands in chat, bot will say their Twitch channel name. Then streamer is updating to the title "Streaming IRL with !username and !username2" so that viewers can find their channels.
It would be easier if this would be inbuild feature in Twitch, so that you could tag other streamers example like this: "Streaming IRL with @username and @username2" and those would be automatically converted as hyperlinks.
Hey there everybody,
Thanks for suggesting this wonderful idea. We're super excited to announce that tagging other channels in your stream titles is now possible!
Channel tagging in stream titles allows you to easily share information about your friends or on-stream collaborators and lets your viewers see and follow the tagged channel without leaving your stream. This helps increase the tagged channel’s chances of being discovered by members of your own community. Try it out by entering @[channel] in your next stream title and keep sharing your feedback with us here in the comments of this idea.
Thanks, again, and we hope you enjoy this new feature that allows you to support your fellow streamers.

I would like to ID tag another channel in the title of my stream. This would allow me as a streamer to have a visible spot for my viewers to see who I'm playing with/talking to, and will promote cross pollination of audiences.

I would love to link other streamers in my stream title to e.g. make it easier to show the viewer whom I'm playing with or link a channel where I will be present in the future.
It could be an autogenerated link when I type @username in the title somewhere.
I think it would be an easy way to show support to other streamers I'm collabing with and would make the title more meaningful. -

Make it so you can “tag” things like other people. So you can do “Playing with @mmattbtw” and the part that says “@mmattbtw” is a hyperlink that goes to said channel.
