  @TwitchSupport my recent stream had a copyright issue with audio that was playing from an album from NCS (No Copyright Sounds) Music, just wondering if NCS does Copyright.

  @TwitchSupport Hello, I'm having trouble accessing my account because someone has stolen my Twitch account. They've changed the email address to a Gmail address ending in .uk. I'm Spanish. My account is linked to my mobile phone, but I can't verify my account because the hacker changed my email. What can I do in this situation?

  @TwitchSupport 1. So people can viewbot channels they dont like, to get them in trouble? 2. The reason why people viewbot is the way your discovery system works: people are incentivized to viewbot to get higher in the directory Fix your discovery system!

  @TwitchSupport Unfortunately all I see is a system ripe for abuse. We've already seen someone get bots sent to their channel to get them in trouble on purpose. It could be circumvented by having actual people talk to the streamer, but I have little/no faith in that happening.

  @TwitchSupport Someone correct me if I am wrong but because Twitch can't figure out a way to actually fix the problem they will put a cap on top with a guess rather than actually fixing the issue. This is just silly!

  @SuperWeegeeX @TwitchSupport not appear: - driver issue - outdated OBS - broken AMF install 3. On Twitch: Creator Dashboard → Settings → Stream Look for: “Enhanced Broadcasting” If it’s missing, Twitch has not enabled AV1 access for your account yet. There is no real way to force it manually. 4. Whe

  I feel like of Twitch took the time to fix their discoverability they would have a lot less issues with viewbotting and streamers “cheating” the system. But all they do is take away discoverability tools and make things worse… I will say this again @twitch @TwitchSupport…. When everyone grows on the platform can grow…. Everyone wins… including Twitch! Don’t you want ALL your streamers growing to help keep the platform financially afloat?? Discoverability should be based on viewer interests and not number of views. People wouldn’t viewbot as much if discoverability wasn’t ZERO. This should be your main focus right now to keep our platform alive.

  @TwitchSupport Hi Twitch! I wanted to thank you for quickly resolving the issue we discussed earlier, but the alabugapolytech channel (under EU and US sanctions) shouldn't be on Twitch, as we don't know what they have in mind next. Also, I repeat, this company is UNDER SANCTIONS.

  My congratulations, @Twitch @TwitchSupport. Right now, in my city of Kyiv, an air raid alert has just been declared. Drones assembled by other children whose brains were brainwashed and who were promised big money while being handed military contracts are flying towards my house and the homes of many other innocent people and children. Advertising something like this is without a doubt one of the most monstrous situations possible. All the streamers who promoted "Alabuga" knew exactly what they were advertising, and they were all paid VERY large sums of money for it. Promoting this is worse than promoting casinos. Even a casino that drives many people into massive debt because of gambling addiction doesn’t force you to work like a slave, cover your hands in the blood of innocents, and then come under fire yourself. I’m honestly shocked that this even needs to be explained. It’s just surreal... And not only did you unban all those streamers who perfectly understood what they were promoting (and who probably all together wrote you tear-jerking appeals pretending they didn’t know what they were advertising), but and this is the funniest part you also unbanned "Alabuga" itself, which is literally a children’s bloody factory of death. It’s just mind-blowing. Well then, @Twitch , enjoy your blood money. I can wish you many things, but good luck with new sponsors is definitely not one of them. Not after **** like this. I can’t believe that with every single day this world becomes more absurd, more horrifying, and more ****** up.

  @TwitchSupport Ah yes, a policy where consistently botting a channel you hate makes that channel lose revenue and growth. I'm sure there won't be any problems with that at all... [/sarcasm]

  @TwitchSupport I’ve been experiencing a glitch lately in the ad UI display on regular streamers I watch. Where the Ui doesn’t load the ads for the break but displays the time bar while the regular svideo plays like normal on twitch mobile. Its fine now just wanted to report this

  Hey @TwitchSupport @Twitch I dont like it when your site throws me an error when gifting subs to a streamer, and take my money anyways without giving out the gifted subs. Thats robbery, and Illegal. Better fix this asap.

  @zachbussey Well, I got 150 bits last year for haggling with Twitch Support for a month - they pretty much sent it to me as a middle finger after they completely failed to help. Still have it. Never spent it, never will (nor will I buy any more). @Twitch @TwitchSupport

  @TwitchSupport So you're punishing creators for the actions of the people actually creating the problem. Hey @YouTube Twitch is pulling a you.

  @TwitchSupport Every attempt under Dan Clancy leadership ended up backfiring and making the problem even worse. Amazon/Twitch need to remove Dan Clancy. Twitch need better leadership.

  @SuperWeegeeX @TwitchSupport Once AV1 is available: AV1 encoder / CBR / 8000 bitrate / keyframe 2 / Quality preset Powerful hardware alone doesn’t unlock AV1. Twitch decides who gets access.

  @TwitchSupport While the concept is sound, I hope that there's guardrails for streamers who are targetted by viewbotting, and that they aren't unfairly punished for being a victim of it. Will this update signal a change in what counts as a bot? Lurkers aren't usually included in Twitch's viewcount, and it would be awful if lurker-friendly streams were also given this cap becaude of the stream environment they created. I'll be hoping that this change results in a positive step for all streamers on the platform; not just the massive ones.

  @TwitchSupport @TwitchES Twitch, I'm in the same situation. I'm not a bot; I was banned for playing Honkai Star Rail and using a character that, in the game's context, is a bot. I really need help.
