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.

As a viewer and streamer I've seen how much bits support me every month and other streamers. As well it has taken years for viewers to be aware that the full 100 bits is equal to the $1 USD. The new cheering feature is very scummy as viewers won't be educated and aware that the creator only gets 80%. Previously viewers would pay the extra fee on their side for the bits so that the creator would get the full bit amount.
Using the new cheering feature would take more money out of creators pockets. Introduce this new feature ALONG SIDE bits, give viewers the option but also be transparent about the fact that creators get 80% and not 100% like bits.
