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This change was originally made to guard against raid bot attacks.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.

It feels HORRIBLE to be on the receiving end of a raid and miss it because Twitch decided <5 isn't "good enough".
I've had small raids like that and the streamers think it either didn't work or it's my fault. That's awful for them, and I feel guilty too.
The most important issue here? People make friends through raids, no matter the size. I've made great friends through even 2-3 person raids. The ability to make connections like that is being taken away, and during a global pandemic where a LOT of people are relying on online interactions as their way to socialize.
Twitch didn't take into consideration the impact this change could have on smaller streamers' mental health.
