I also need this feature. I am currently rely on 3rd-party-tools.

I Agree +1!

There is the brand.twitch.tv page. But this site is very bad. It is not clearly arranged. It needs too many clicks and was developed only from UI and not UX point of view.

Personally I only use the Identity Guidelines (Speedrun Edition) PDF. It contains all elements clearly arranged. Furthermore the examples are better visualized.

It would also be great if we could customize the meta description. Currently there is 20-30% unusable text in it, like "Created by .... Extension screenshot. Details.", in my opinion this is not relevant for the search result.

@BlueLava Ok, great!

@TwitchDev Community:

a) My first thought was: Not for bots. IMHO, they should be a different badge between verified/known bots and its developers. So users can easily see, this is a bot (a pice of software), and this is a real person (a 3rd-party developer).

b) How would one qualify: In my opinion, it needs to be automated, but it also needs a review process. If I had the choise to define such a guidline, I would formulate it in a similar way:

"You qualify for this badge if you have a published twitch extension or a verified bot. You will also need to have an account that has agreed to the Developer Services Agreement (you agree to this, if you signed up on TwitchDev)."

My background to this opinion:

Currently, Verified Bots as well as Twitch Extensions have a review process on Twitch. This is to prevent someone from simply unlocking this badge for fun automatically.

Con: It does not currently take into account of 3rd-party websites (oauth apps).

c) The automatic system should be possible (on the part of the chat team), iirc: anykey.org has a sign-up form, where you can fill you twitch id/username and you get instant the global GLHF Pledge badge (i also have this badge).

I would be pleased about further feedback!

@BlueLava Is this suggestion intended for 3rd party developers? If yes, I really love you idea!

Theoretically, this process is a part of post production. Before the stream is uploaded to Twitch. I think the idea of having such a tool directly on Twitch is not bad.

Streamers should also comply with the Community Guidelines. If the stream is not family friendly, then the stream should be classified as mature.

I liked this idea very much, unfortunately I have no more votes to support it!

Hey Swifx,

Usernames may be freed up for re-registration, without notice, if: are no longer active, meaning, there is no viewing or login activity associated with the account for at least 12 months.

Read more about the "Username Rename and Recycling Policies" here: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/username-rename-and-recycling-policies?language=en_US

I hope I was able to help you. I myself had to wait 12 months until my username was released.

Greetings
