Every single person involved in this decision, from suggesting it to approving it, does not understand how the community of creators uses this website. A devastating decision that will wipe over a decade of history for some people and communities. Not only was the decision itself terrible, but the time period before erasure alone is not near enough for most creators to transfer that amount of content.
You should be leaning more into pushing this archived content to the community, make it more searchable, browsable, and watchable, not driving your creators away -to- those other services.

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…
