  1. This has been a pervasive issue within Twitch for years and affects streamers of all sizes. Bot accounts will spam the same posts advertising cheap AI viewers for sale at websites like Streamboo.com, Twitchmax, Twitchstar, etc. Twitch HQ has seemingly infinite resources to invest in introducing new AI-centric technology that nobody has asked for, but refuses to do even the slightest bit to actually tackle this issue. I block and report multiple instances of these bots every single stream I do, and I've streamed every day for the past year. The accounts are deleted within seconds of reporting them, so…

  2. Please add the option for pinned messages to stay around for longer.

    Sometimes you just want the pinned message to be pinned for one day only.
    The only way to do that currently is to set the duration as "until the stream ends" when the Broadcaster is offline and then requiring you to remember to unpin it again in a timely manner.
    It would be really great to have more option for how long a message should be pinned for, ideally similar to the options you get for the duration of a timeout.

  3. A streamer I mod for announced he was ending stream and was going to raid out to a channel I frequent a lot, so I figured I’d go ahead and have the raid ready to go. When he went to process the raid, it wouldn’t let him as I had already started it.

    It appears as though whoever initiated the raid is the only person who can actually “raid out” which wasn’t my intention as the streamer is the one who knows when they want to click that button (after thanking viewers, subs, saying goodnight, etc). This tool is useful…

  4. When I do /followers 2m, chat says I enabled 2 minute follower mode, but mod view says I enabled 120 minute (i.e. 2 hour) follower mode.

  5. I would really appreciate a way to filter chat to only show messages, and filter out redeems or gift subs. I moderate for a moderately busy streamer, and sometimes chat starts spamming redeems. While the streamer is fine with it, I am annoyed because it prevents me from moderating chat properly. A filter would greatly improve my moderating experience.

  6. TL;DR: Mod View Theater Mode that shows only configured Widgets.

    When viewing a stream while not in Mod View, you can go into theater mode and it'll minimize all other elements of the stream. I'd like to be able to do the same in Mod View. Where it'll minimize the side and top bars while keeping configured widgets. This maximizes viewing experience as a moderator while removing elements you're not using.

  7. Give us back the ability to Edit Stream Information on mod view in mobile. PLEASE. I don't know why it was taken away, but there are Lead/Head mods who actually use it, and it is very annoying to not be able to assist my friend by just updating the stream category for them.

  8. I think it would be really useful if moderators could save multiple Mod View layouts, similar to how streamers can customize their Stream Manager.

    For example, you could have different layouts depending on the stream or chat you’re moderating.

    This idea has already been suggested before, but the original post was from 2021 and didn’t get much attention.

  9. Twitch should add a specific Potential Viewbotting option directly to its live channel reporting tool. This would allow users to immediately flag suspicious streams for staff to investigate. To prevent users from abusing the tool, the system should include safety limits that block the same account or IP address from spamming multiple reports against the same channel. By giving the community a secure way to report unusual activity, Twitch can better track down malicious botting services while protecting creators from targeted harassment campaigns.

  10. Please expand channel moderation capabilities to allow creators to restrict specific user tiers—such as Twitch Partners or specific account groups—from viewing their live streams and broadcasts.

    Rationale & Impact:

    Proactive Boundary & Privacy Control: Current channel bans prevent users from interacting in chat, but do not prevent them from viewing live content. Creators who have experienced harassment, unwanted attention, or brigading from larger channels/communities need proactive tools to protect their stream space before incidents occur.

    Streamer Autonomy: Streamers should have full governance over who can access their content. Providing filter options to restrict viewing access based on account tier or…

  11. As a female streamer who has been harassed through the use of anonymous gifted subs by users out of hatred or jealousy, I would have loved the option to turn off anonymous subs which limits the anonymity of the gifted subs and makes it less likely to be used as a way of harassing a streamer who currently has no way of combating this hate. Especially when there are many usernames that are derogatory remaining on the app and degrading to people, especially women.

  12. As a moderator there has been times where I've been looking through the Unban requests but without the ability to approve or deny said request
    Making me have to ping the streamer either on discord or through whispers to deal with the problem because I can't do anything about it

  13. The new feature that lets people comment on clips is amazing.

    However, I immediately looked for a tool for moderators and editors that would centralize all new comments for moderation purposes.

    It’s going to get complicated to moderate these comments if someone comments on a clip from two years ago that’s buried deep at the bottom of the list.

    We need some kind of activity feed in the dashboard to see all new comments in one place and be able to moderate them.

  14. Hello, I had the idea that you could pin items outside of the mod view on your phone and then also determine how long they remain pinned, using a colon next to the Pinned message. Perhaps this can be triggered by long-pressing on the message What's new in the latest update.

    Then you wouldn't always have to open the mod view and select it there. It would be cool if that could be implemented somehow. Thanks for reading. If it happens ^^

  15. Add the ability to pin your own message back on mobile mod view. We used to be able to, but at some point that feature went away.

  16. Despite blocking regular messages in chat setting chatters status to restricted doesn't stop them from sending message thru resub messages or cheers. Seems like an oversight to me

  17. I believe that Twitch streamers who do death threats to other Twitch streamers should be banned just like in this case as an example .

  18. Twitch staff (moderation side) are actual ******* retards (I can use this word if Asmongold & the president of USA can).

    It's honestly so disgusting. Twitch actively ignoring people who just straight up right stolen vods while at the same time there is NO LEVEL of editing or anything I can do to make unique transformative content according to Twitch - despite the advice of a literal copyright attorney which I consulted.

    This is just a DISGUSTINGLY bad platform.

    What is my recommendation for Twitch to improve it's moderation?

    JUST...
    BE...
    FAIR!..

    It TRULY is THAT ******* SIMPLE but these…

  19. Current implementation of quick actions allows issuing a mod action with a single click without any confirmation, which is fine when you need to act fast, but opens up a huge door for a whole world of accidents and uncomfortable talks after that. For instance, I wanted to bring a browser window to the front, for which I put a cursor on a seemingly empty spot, only for a ban button next to a user in a list to manifest itself right under my cursor, which I did not have time to process before I clicked it.

    That, in my…

  20. As a paying Twitch subscriber, I am asking Twitch to distinguish intentional sexual content from the brief, incidental display of original album artwork during music-focused streams.

    Many commercially released records, particularly older releases, contain nudity in their original cover art. When a streamer shows that artwork only to identify, discuss, or introduce the music—not to present sexual content—a severe account suspension is disproportionate.

    Please consider context, intent, duration, and framing when enforcing the Adult Nudity policy.

    For incidental album artwork, warnings, VOD removal, or an opportunity to blur or cover the image would be far more appropriate than immediate account-level…
