Hey all! Thanks for this thread. We recently deprecated anonymous Cheering after we discovered it was being abused. While we understand some viewers prefer not being recognized for Cheering, we made this change to ensure a safer experience for those who were negatively impacted.
We’ve also heard your concerns on what this means for the future of Bits. This deprecation is not related to any plans to limit Cheering with Bits on Twitch, and is solely focused on providing a safer experience for our community.

Anonymity permits users who would otherwise wistfully think of supporting to become active supporters. It is an important part of the community and also revenue for creators and platform

Hey guys! We really appreciate the feedback that has been brought forth in this thread and just wanted to update you a little bit on what is going on.
This change was originally made to guard against raid bot attacks. While smaller raids are currently viewable in activity feed in the dashboard, we are working on a solution that treats raids equally while guarding against abuse tactics.

Every content creator has to start somewhere, and the community at large wants to build each other up.
Kindly stop taking actions that break the community down.

Truly this functionality would increase visibility of memorable and meme-orable moments, and increase engagement on several levels!
