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 AM NOT REFERRING TO BANDWIDTH TESTS OR TWITCH INSPECTOR. I AM AWARE OF THESE TOOLS, BUT NEITHER ALLOWS YOU TO CHECK YOUR STREAM'S AUDIO/VISUAL TRUE BROWSER OUTPUT.)
I think it would be very useful if we were able to go live without viewers knowing, for testing purposes.
Right now, I am experiencing a problem where my stream visually flickers once every two seconds, but only when alternative transcoding options are selected. I stream at 1080p, but if a viewer changes it to 720p or lower, the flickering issue starts happening.
Of course, this means the problem does not occur when I check my stream in OBS's stream preview, since OBS doesn't show me how my stream -really- looks once it reaches Twitch - only Twitch itself can do that. OBS only shows what's being sent to Twitch, meaning issues that arise on Twitch itself - like transcoding issues - cannot be detected until my viewers begin to notice it.
There have also been times in the past where I wished that I could test my stream before actually going live, such as perceived audio levels in Discord calls. When I take a recording in OBS, or watch the Audio Mixer levels in OBS, it sometimes doesn't reflect the actual output that my viewers are getting. These problems would have been caught if I was able to go live for a test without them being notified. Watching Twitch VODs back can be very enlightening for discovering problems or things that aren't functioning quite as intended.
Testing is at the heart of quality. It would be nice if we creators had more tools for actually testing our streams and content before bringing it to our viewers.

If you are having this problem, the file size is too large. I attempted to upload a 112x112 PNG icon that was over 30KB, and ran into this error. The file size limit is *incredibly* small. Try not to exceed 25KB, and you should be fine.

Twitch allegedly wants to train AI on our streams. Our creations, our content, our voices, our personalities - *us*.
Generative AI being trained upon the hard work of real humans everywhere, with or without our knowledge, is an affront and an insult to creators everywhere.
I do not consent to my streams, my art, my content, or anything else I create being used to train any form of AI.
Let us opt out, as a minimum. Ideally, don't involve AI whatsoever. It's all a circular scam anyway.
