    Hi, thanks for flagging this and sharing your suggestion.

    We share and understand your concerns about how the intentional, repeated misuse of tags can undermine the purpose of the tags product itself.  Tags are an important discoverability feature for communities, and a powerful way for all Creators—but especially those that are underrepresented—to express their personal identity and creative vision for their content.

    We also do not feel Twitch should be the judge of Creators’ personal or creative identity, so we typically only enforce against the misuse of tags when it is associated with other behavior that violates our Community Guidelines such as hateful conduct or harassment.

    That said, as the VTuber community’s experience demonstrates, there are limitations to this approach and we are actively investigating additional steps we can take to protect and improve the integrity of the tags feature at scale, without infringing on good faith Creators’ personal choice…

    I do agree. A ton of my friends I enjoy streaming with are affiliates or below. A ton of affiliates and smaller streamers play together and try to help each other grow. Discoverability is already difficult for smaller streamer, so this would definitely be a step in the right direction. The only option we currently have is to use 3rd party site which may not be safe and don't let us show ads. If everyone or affiliates at the very least, could squad stream directly, it would help us grow and let us run ads on our channels properly without random screens popping up and by protecting everyone. Would also make it much easier for viewers to see it on twitch than on a 3rd party site.
