There is literally no excuse for all viewers to not have options for stream quality. Forcing to watch at Source quality (typically 1080p, 60 fps) is just not good when it is constantly buffering. It is text book elitism and it needs to stop.
Twitch claims to push and fight for equality and non-discrimination for blacks, trans, gays, asians, natives and whoever the protected class is, not realizing that among those groups are people with bad internet who can't watch these forced high quality streams if they wanted to.
Maybe have some consistency in your Corporate Social Responsibility and apply the same principles to your big issues as to your small ones. Then we'll have a better world. Act human for once. Put yourself in the poor people's shoes.

Doing this clearly shows twitch devs do not understand how statistics work. the less than 0.5% of streamers is badly misleading as it ignores the fact the stats of active vs inactive streamers. Twitch devs should take the time to investigate further and look into streamer activity rates and cross reference with usage of the usage of the highlight feature. For example: if you have streamed less than XYZ amount of hours since you created your account, your highlight usage numbers are not taken into account with this percentage. This would give a far more accurate representation of activity than just putting everyone in a pot and calling it a day.
The saddest part about this is that the people that have the most to lose in this, namely speedrunners who use highlights a lot, are the one who will take the least action to fix this.
