Hurray, another Authy leak, and Twitch still automatically creates an Authy account for anyone who wants to use 2fa.
And they still don't inform you that they're going to do that (aside from a side-note in a FAQ that you have to scroll 80% down the help page about setting up 2fa, under the question "What can I do if I lose access to my device and / or phone number?", in the second paragraph of the answer.)
I don't even mind giving twitch a phone number personally, I already did that for chat verification on some channels, I just don't want my data shared with another company whose entire purpose is to secure things, who keeps having their user data leaked.
Please, 2fa should be making things *more* secure, not giving lists of the phone number of every user to people on the dark web.

I really dislike twitch creating an Authy account on my behalf. I've tried to use 2FA with twitch a few times over the years and every time I end up with an Authy account that I have to go through a ~30 day procedure to delete it. I'd rather not tie my 2FA completely to my phone number.
Please just let us use TOTP without Authy.

Generally properly written code should be able to handle any string, with the scariest cases being single quote (( ' )) if someone was using SQL to store data without either using the proper sanitization to escape input data, or using prepared statements.
Beyond that care would have to be taken to escape any special characters where usernames are transported (I'm not sure what the restrictions the IRC protocol enforces), and formats where someone might be writing usernames to disk with the intention to load back later.
Basically in code you can always use escape sequences to represent characters in a string that would otherwise be unsafe though, so that should not be an issue.

My bits button is still REPLACED by the coin button on some channels. I even tried to get around it by typing Cheer100 but it pops open the coin cheer interface with a red error message saying that's the only way I can support this creator during the experiment.
There was a hype train going and I decided to cheer using the coin system to see how it works. To become the bits hype train conductor it says to cheer bits, but I figured the coin button would work since twitch took away my bits on this channel. Coin cheers *DO NOT* count towards hype train bits conductor.
Also twitch charged me $1.30CAD, but the message in chat said I cheered $1.00CAD, so I'm really not sure if that's supposed to be including payment processing fees or twitch fees? 30¢ CAD (23%) of my cheer was removed between when I paid and when the message was shown in chat, but that doesn't align with twitch's 70/30 split, and I don't think it aligns with the payment processor's fees.
After actually using it once I just feel far more confused than I ever did with bits. Who knows how much the channel I tipped will actually get in the end?

As a viewer I've had my ability to cheer changed to the new experiment on a few channels, and I really don't like it.
I'm limited to "cheering" $1.30, $6.50, $13.00, $65.00, $130.00 Canadian Dollars.
With bits a lot of channels I watch have special alerts for specific bit amounts, and this completely removes my ability to use those.
I can't preload my twitch account with this new system, if I wanted to tip more than $1.30 but less than $6.50 I'd have to tip $1.30 multiple times, and I feel like a lot of my money would go to processing fees that way.
To me this feels like a much much worse viewer experience, and if I want to support the channels I've been switched over on, I'll be doing it via 3rd party donations (kofi, streamelements donation, paypal, etc), rather than via twitch.

It has been about 18 months now since this idea/request was posted, and I just finished reporting/flagging a bunch of posts including spam/malware links that I'm pretty sure I've reported in the past.
I don't think I've seen the status of any ideas I'm tracking updated recently so I'm not really sure if Twitch is still monitoring or engaged in this.
I wonder if there's a way that I can only get notified by e-mail if an idea gets a response or status update from a staff member, instead of when anyone adds a comment...
