    Hello! Me and my friend was thinking about how great would be if Twitch provide something to help those who hasn't the hability of hearing. We've found a way to caption what we are saying live (we are using Twitch Subtitles by PubNub) but we need something else to help us to communicate the audience that our channel is for EVERYONE. Something like a tag on the description. "Audio transcription enabled" would do the job. With time and engagement enough to prove to everyone that there are people in this condition who are interested in our content, we should make this more visible! Some kind of highlight or a special place where deaf people can know which channels are streamming using features to provide them the best experience as possible. We are aware that there are so many people interested in watch streamers in this huge community, but unfortunatelly, as it is on all other social media, the deaf people doesn't have enough support. Me and my friend are about to create a moviment to include all of those people! We are starting this this week. Wish us luck!
