This experiment is now closed as the new mobile redesign is rolling out to all users. Thank you for all your feedback during the experiment. We released an update to respect your autoplay settings in the feed, muted the feed on open by default (you can adjust this in your settings), and added mute functionality directly to the feed to give you more control over your viewing experience. We also enabled PIP over feed and have been continuing to improve app performance since launch. Learn more about the new app on our blog and continue to share feedback with us on the improved experience in the mobile category on UserVoice.

This makes cheering and making money harder for streamers I watch. They have existing sound clips and graphics and in-jokes and community understanding based around the concept of bits. This wreaks of changing something just to change something without fully outlining how this could effect the wide streamer community. You don't just suggest and A/B test a change without first understanding why a feature is/was the way it is/was.
Cheering IS easy. Direct purchase cheering is a gigantic step in the wrong direction on top of other changes that are already in a poor direction.
Bit voting polls is another thing that is VERY fun and crucial to many communities on here but that seems to be missing at present. One streamer i watch is having to scramble to figure out a new way to produce previously promised content that was quite dependent on Bit based voting in polls.
someone seems to have it out for bits and maybe more clear communication from Twitch to content creators is needed on why you feel the need to phase them out. is it some legal thing in other countries outside of the USA? is it a possible new law you are preparing for in which bits are now considered something you don't want to deal with having to defend?
don't sell removal of features as a "fun new *SMILE EVERYBODY PLEASE SMILE* feature where we recommend you dance or sing a song". we're all adults. communicate to the talent and creators as such please. thank you.
