The fact that there are no custom sorting options for the channel list is bad enough (i.e. no favorites or manual sorting), but now I have to scroll 5x as much to reach lower viewer count streams. This UI change is so bad for discoverability and viewer retention for smaller streams. At least give us display options like switching between thumbnails/details/etc in Windows Explorer.

On 2/2, we will turn off Chants.
While this feature was popular, we observed negative impacts to minutes watched for significant groups of creators.
Experiments help us test new ideas in real time, and decide what to build next. Thanks for sharing your feedback with us!An error occurred while saving the comment Tadur

This feature is extremely invasive. It kicks off pointless spam that drowns out conversations. It has a UI popup that appears right where you are looking when reading chat AND requires interaction to dismiss quickly. It makes the "PogChamp" moments in streams feel cheap because the chat exploding as a reaction is no longer organic, and is instead initiated by a popup. PLEASE just remove it, or at bare minimum provide an option to completely disable it (including hiding every chat message from other users utilizing it to spam). I'm getting really tired of coding or installing extensions to deal with all the pointless UI clutter you guys keep introducing. Let the platform do what it's already good at instead of getting in the way of it.

This is the worst update in the history of this platform. Terrible UI and UX decisions across the board. Autoplaying video content with autoplay setting disabled in options is extremely frustrating.
I've now unfollowed dozens of streams I had been following for close to a decade in an attempt to make it slightly tolerable and it's still unbearable to use. Plenty of streams I'm happy to watch on occasion or when my interests align with their "streaming meta", but can't stand being forced to scroll through them autoplaying just because they have a high viewer count, as many of them are loud and obnoxious at times, and currently streaming content I have no interest in. Before I could just not click on them, now that content is being force-fed. Even after curating my followed channels, it then starts autoplaying random streams I have never watched and have 0 interest in instead, which is somehow even worse. Blocking and flagging as "not interested" for dozens of channels/categories and it still repeatedly shoves terrible content I don't want to watch in my face.
I can no longer browse followed channels while continuing to watch a stream in the small picture-in-picture window. This is a huge UX downgrade since there is no way to continue enjoying content while checking to see if something else more appealing is live.
It now requires extra actions to reach followed channels list for no benefit.
Obnoxious UI clutter like clips that I have no interest in and will never interact with.
On top of all that it seems to drain battery faster than before, which is not a welcome change on older devices with waning battery life.
Sadly I've entirely left multiple platforms that I had been a heavy user of for more than a decade within the past few years due to clueless companies gutting the usefulness of their core product. This is a huge step in the same direction for Twitch.
