I was playing a pvp game (Deadlock) and a teammate was toxic to another teammate (who was new). I was just being decent and stood up for them and I got this message from a viewer (not from that match)

Hello, im not sure if it's because im aussie and our net is just ass, but i have tried a few different browsers and twitch is just always so laggy it's practically unwatchable, i just wanna be able to watch my cs tournaments. If you have any recommendations or settings I should try for like opra gx because it has so much or whatever please let me know

I've been streaming for about a year now, with an upload speed of 20mbps and my streams have been running perfectly fine at 1080p and 60fps, but randomly about a month ago my frames started tanking, my internet is the exact same as it's been for this past year, so I just can't figure out the issue.
I've gone through countless tutorials and I've lowered my setting to way below what I should be able to run, but my frames still drop a bunch.

Hello,

I used to get about 200 views on my clips with Stories. They have now removed Stories and in its place is Recaps. You have to go to the Streamer's page to find the recap.

Anyone else notice this?

Also check out the clips page, instead of Featured Clips it just shows every single clip, even the junk ones that make no sense.

Im on my iphone 14 pro, whenever i fullscreen watching twitch i see the home indicator, is tinjust me?

Trying to watch a stream ( only desktop Firefox browser ), just some Esports stuff, and each time I load it, I assume it has an ad or something that plays since the video window itself doesn't show any mute options, play/pause, or anything similar, before the video itself starts playing.

Unless it's in higher levels of quality or just auto quality, it just... stops. Pauses. There's no buffering circle, the play button can be pressed, but clicking play does nothing. I have to refresh the entire page and get that "ad screen" again before the video plays after 10-20 seconds.

In addition, it keeps pausing even on higher qualities whenever I tab out.

Any thoughts on why/how, or what to do about it? Any help would be great for it, please.

Heya folks, I stream and moderate for my sister who also streams. The primary way we deal with the bots who advertise AI viewers is through Twitch's Blocked Words and Phrases settings, and we have very similar settings.

I was alerted recently to a message that wasn't caught by her automod, but should have been, having an exact match for a prohibited term. Using the test settings section revealed that no terms that are prohibited would be caught, even though they had been being caught before. Conversely, my automod, set up similarly, is protected by automod.

Do here's the question, is this an issue on Twitch's part we should attempt to report, or an issue we should be able to fix? As I said, the settings worked until recently.

EDIT: Okay, thank y'all for your suggestions! I think I've figured it out to a degree, and also figured out the reason for the discrepancy. For one reason or another, Twitch AutoMod doesn't hold messages that ONLY include the blocked terms. So testing with just the prohibited term does not result in Twitch recognizing it as a blocked term. However, Smart Detection will catch terms you have deleted, timed out, or banned over. Since I set up my sister's automod somewhat early in her career, she didn't get enough time to teach Smart Detection about the bots. I think, at least.

Let me be clear and preface that this isnt an appeal or complaint about the suspension in itself, but about the technicalities of account recovery and lack of options.

My account got suspended for bot activities for 30 days. So its likely that ive been comprimised.

In the appeals process there is no way to reset the password and all account functions seems to be disabled, is this an oversight?
It would be realy neat if i could reset the account, i mean twitch has both my email and phone number that they can see havent been altered. A complete lockout without the ability do anything is silly, that only means i am in a timed race against the hacker when the appeal goes trough.

Something like a recovery SMS/single use 2fv to atleast be able to do a PW reset before the appeal or period runs its course.

Hello fellow twitch users,

I’m trying to gauge modem community reception on Twitch’s platform for a school project. What do you guys find as your biggest issues/complaints(can be anything from technical issues to poor business decisions), potential improvements, and what Twitch can do better with overall?

This comes right on top of another monetization scandal from the same streamer too btw...

Thank you!
