I agree with this comment. I heavily used the "continue watching" before the change. Additionally, I want to see the title of the stream in addition to the game/category - I may not be interested in a specific game, but I'll still click on it if I can see it is a charity or anniversary stream, or if the title says that another streamer I like is also playing co-op. The screenshot/category/title layout of the previous system provided everything I needed. Additionally, if I am debating switching streams, I want to have the previous stream still playing while I browse my favorites, however with the new set up the old stream stops playing when I move back to the "home" screen with its autoplay feature.
Unfortunately, having a random stream start playing when I open the app actually gives me a negative impression of the streamer, because they become the face of a frustrating step I have to get through to get to what I want. Now I am actually less likely to open up the Twitch app when I have a few minutes free, because I have to waste time getting to what I want. I've noticed that I am only logging on when I know a streamer is on, and will go to youtube instead during breaks.
