    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.

    My community has an inside joke about cheering anonymously and we feel like we all know the one person who does it, but since it’s anonymous… can always be someone else. It’s always funny wondering! Seriously though, some people like to support in the shadows, and this tool only helps people do that. It’s wholesome and I always love seeing the little cheermote that comes with it! Such a shame because bits are 100% the way to go for supporting a streamer and it seems like Twitch doesn’t realize that when they should.
