Account age restriction/gate
There should be an option for streamers similar to how follower only mode works, where you can set an amount the account must be following before they can chat, where you can restrict an accounts ability to chat based on how long ago they've made their account. This would significantly cut back on trolling and especially ban evasion.

Me parece algo que podria ser muy util, obviamente de forma opcional pero que se pueda incluir incluso el rango de horas.
Me esta pasando que soy atacado por cuentas bots que dan follow para molestar en directo con las alertas y son cuentas que tienen como mucho 6 horas de creadas.Esto seria una muy buena idea para combatir este tip ode acoso asi como el poder buscar usuarios y bloquearlos ya que siempre mantienen el mismo nombre por lo general, pero ya es otro tema jaja.
Saludos a todos

Hello! i'm being raided by thousands of bots constantly, almost everytime i stream. last time were 1790 and i have to say, its very annoying.
I have a very simple idea to help us all ( because im not the one )
this is very simple. we have that option "Only followers chat by (x) days "
so we could have also a similar option that says,
" You can only follow this account if your account have (x) days or (x) weeks from creation "
so, bots are new created accounts mostly. and they get deleted after 2-3 days or maybe 1 week.
this would save a lot of work. maybe... im just tired of deleting bots...

Dear Twitch,
We as streamers should have a way to turn on a feature that allows only accounts that are a specified number of days/weeks/months old from being able to follow. At this point, so many streamers are skeptical of brand new accounts as they could be follow bots that we're ignoring or potentially banning new accounts anyways. This feature would ideally be opt in and in combination with follower/sub only chat could be a good remedy to follow botting.
Sincerely,
A concerned streamer
