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.

Removing this feature while saying it somehow protects the community makes no sense. Anonymous bits did not allow a message, name, or image to be sent with the donation. In terms of frequency a streamer can already set minimum bits thresholds for bits donations and alert thresholds for bit donations. With this in mind this feature cannot be used to harass a streamer in any way.
At the same time you've left in Anonymous subs which actually display the giftee account name. This means an anonymous user can gift to an offensively named account and it displays in both chat and on stream.
If you are trying to remove "abuse" you've got it entirely backwards and all you've done is hurt our monetization options.
