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…

Hey twitch, if helping out creators isn’t motivation enough, consider this: if people can’t find what they’re looking for in your site, they aren’t gonna use it. They’ll all jump ship to another steaming service (YouTube, Picarto) where the search function actually. Yknow. Works.
Maybe have a strike system on incorrect tags, cuz accidents happen.Vivianne_the_Magician

This is a fantastic idea - I was looking for this exact information the other day. I often don’t know which tags I should use or what keywords will help people find me. This would let us make the most of the 10 tags we’re allowed.
