I recently noticed that when you click on a user's nickname in the chat, it no longer shows the date and year they started following the streamer (this is the case for everyone). Is this a bug? Or does Twitch no longer provide this information?

I'm going to assume the answer for what I'm about to ask is a "no", but figured I'd ask anyway.

During a collab with a shared chat, is there any way for a user banned in one of the chats involved to chat in the chat? As a mod, I encountered this last night with 2 streamers (one I mod for and the other I don't follow). The channel I mod for, a regular viewer whispered me, saying they can't chat due to them being banned in the other channel part of the collab. Through DMs, I informed the streamer I mod for about this, but they didn't want to end the shared chat. That streamer is asking myself and other mods to find a way to make shared chat still work, but allow any banned chatters to still chat in other channels, to talk in her channel. Again, I already assume it isn't possible, but figured I'd post here as confirmation. This situation doesn't seem like an easily Google search kind of issue.

Looking to buy new microphone, preferably clean, cardioid and with good off axis rejection. been eyeing Shure but want opinions on best of the best microphones and also budget bang for buck picks.

Streaming 3x a week on Twitch so reliability matters.

For now I have been using a Blue Yeti on desk with no arm and really liked it.

additionally I have some problems with my room has no treatment so off axis rejection is really important.

In Australia options are a bit limited so need something easy to find.

On August 30th, I was watching a stream in the usual channel I always watch on weekdays. After I went to take a shower and eat, Twitch suddenly required me to verify with a phone number. At first I thought it was the streamer who had enabled phone verification, but I quickly realized that every single channel was asking for it.

I then submitted my situation to Contact Support, explaining the sudden requirement and that I don’t own a phone number I can use for verification.While waiting for a response, I created a new account to test things out. I discovered that the new account wasn’t asked for any phone verification at all in order to chat. So this is clearly Twitch targeting older accounts.

Contact Support claimed they would reply within 24 hours, but after waiting two days, all I got was a copy-pasted generic response. They completely ignored my actual situation and just said: “We want to keep chat safe and fun for everyone!”If it’s really about keeping chat safe and fun, then why can brand-new accounts chat freely without any verification, while older users are suddenly forced to provide a phone number?

I was updating my emotes tonight, and I decided to use Easy Animate to add more animated emotes to my channel. I picked "Rave" for one of them, and then emote got rejected because of flashing.

Why is Twitch offering an animation template that can't pass its own guidelines?!

Ever since Twitch started turning UI elements into rounded pills or circles everywhere, the site has always felt off to me. I guess I'm just nostalgic, but I've been thinking about this for a while, so over the weekend I used Firefox's inspector mode and tracked down all the main button elements I could find, chat controls, follow buttons, settings, video player controls, ad overlays, etc, and brought back that old classic boxy square button aesthetic.

This is just a passion project for me. I'll keep it updated whenever Twitch decides to change any styling because I love that boxy look.

Ok enough waffling, how do I install this?

Step 1: Cut a hole in a box... sorry, just kidding.

First you'll need to install an add-on/extension from your browser of choice. I recommend the userscript manager violentmonkey (open source), but you can also use tampermonkey if you prefer. Then head to Greasy Fork, a site to upload/download userscripts and search for "Twitch Square Corners," or grab it directly from here: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/593937-twitch-square-corners

Once installed simply refresh Twitch if it doesn't do so automatically and your done. Those soft rounded pills are long gone in place of sharp, boxy, square buttons. Nostalgia enabled!

Tested on Firefox with violentmonkey, but should work fine on any browser with a userscript manager. Please feel free to try it out and let me know what you think and if I missed any elements, thanks for checking it out.

Whenever I move ingame, obs would still capture some colours on the previous frame... 🙄

My messages are not getting through and I don't know why

what's going on?

I tried PC and phone and my messages are not going through (the streamer has chat layout so I would know)

After hours trying, restarting and closing twitch and opening it again I tried a redeem, I redeemed a pride scarf and it went through so I figured the "highlight my messages" feature could maybe get a message through but as you can see in the picture, the message says it was not sent

Hopefully this is just for today and it's back to normal tomorrow but in the chance is not, can someone point me towards something I can do for my messages to go through?

I tried restarting the PC, closing the tab, changing my badges, the "highlight my message" feature, switching to phone.

Thanks in advance.

The mobile App keeps loading every stream i try to open and never works since a few days.

So I am on the streamlabs dashboard. Go to streaming tools-overlays. When I attempt to edit an overlay and place my user names in the text box it isn't changing. So I type the name in, save it, then reload and the name still doesn't show up in the boxes. Help

I stream off of my xbox 1x, And for whatever reason, no matter what i change my stream title to, weather it be from my phone or xbox, it always automatically changes it to "Test". I had it changed to test once on purpose, but after that, its always automatically changed it to that, even if i change the name before hand.

I'm (USA) an affiliate and for OVER 1 year I've had a friend (USA) prime sub to me for most months. I've had 2 other random prime subs in the past year. (Ik one is USA)

Q1. How come only TWO of my monthly Prime statements tell me I made money and it's SO low. I made $0.02 and $0.04.

Q2. How come for over 12 months it's been saying it's under review and I've made $0? Am I misinterpreting it? It says it's under review and previously reviewed at the same time.

Q3. I understand there is a chance I am misremembering. Is there a way for me to see who has prime subbed + when without playing back all of my VODs?

If I am wrong about how many people have prime subbed to me, I also want to know but clearly these people don't have access to any useful data. 🥲 I was thinking of calling on the phone and asking for a "higher up" but I don't think they have a higher up who can answer lol. Our emails are currently going in a loop.

Guys why are some countries blacklisted as part of the twitch program. Especially countries from Africa. Where is the ration coming from? What is fueling it?

Ctx I recently moved to Lithuania but am from Africa. I don't have an official LT ID yet but wanted to make it work for me.

I just want to test it out for a few streams see how it feels

IS there anywhere online you can just download some free ones (expecting others use them too)

Test it out on live stream. I want to stream on Twitch/TikTok simultaneously

Hi I’m a vtuber femboy streamer and I’ve had a somewhat active community but never at the same time. I have 80 something followers on twitch and I stream a lot. None of those 80 people watch at the same time or can’t watch at all. I usually average 2 viewers per stream. I advertise every stream so people know I’m live. Should I make a discord server or something. Is there anything I can do to get affiliate. Please don’t request bots I refuse to do that
