    @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 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?

    @SugmaDick20 @TwitchSupport Sounds a personal problem is 2026. Adapt or get left behind peasant.

    @TwitchSupport If the new system is “based on historical data” how does that work when 80% of Twitch’s top streamers have been accused of viewbotting or getting botted for years? This just rewards the biggest cheaters... Fix discovery/ranking instead. Also, fire Dan Clancy @TwitchSupport

    @TwitchSupport the biggest issue isn't viewbotting on twitch but how much time and remuneration we have we enjoy streaming. Our Ego wont be in trouble from 1-5 or 50-100 if the paycheck each month is there

    @TwitchSupport This will just incentivize maliciously viewbotting with it being impossible to tell who is behind it. Now you can pay to get someone in trouble and cap their CCV, thus killing any growth they had.

    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.

    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…. 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 Seem like a rule to help bad actors,a rule to say they did something in relation to the problem but will be enforce unfairly as they already do. Instead of banning clear botter they made it an oppurtunity for viewers and streamers to bot others to limit view counts

  • ZoieNolan4

    @TwitchSupport People only view bot because the discoverability for small streamers is so terrible.

    @TwitchSupport @Twitch Gifting subs failed nine times last night on stream and still charged me anyway. Multiple error messages each time. How do we resolve this and refund my money?

    Sorry for the stream notification spam tonight, I was troubleshooting the black screen problem. The vod itself is perfect, but the overall stream viewing experience was dog butter ****** buns. (Bad) I seem to have fixed it with help from @Twitch & @TwitchSupport guidelines.

    Did any other streamers from Ireland just have their streams completely crash? It happened me and @twitchwdanger who is another Irish streamer but everyone else on my following list seems fine... @TwitchSupport #irishstreamers

    @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

    @TwitchSupport Fixing the discoverability issues on Twitch would fix some of these issues. Not all of them, but it would make a huge difference. People wouldn’t feel so desperate to be “discovered”.

    @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

  • JBM111SB

    @TwitchSupport They better be completely serious about getting rid of all of it. Viewbotting is the biggest problem when it comes to the number of viewers watching the live stream. Let's see how this goes until I start streaming on the platform later this year.

    @TwitchSupport Can you guys please add Twitch login support for the official Samsung Browser? I want to start using that browser but I can't even log into Twitch.

    @Rakunvar @TwitchSupport Yep a while back a group attacked a Minecraft server and a few of the streamers in it. Hit us with tons of bots and got told it was our problem. Have a feeling this is gonna hurt people who didn’t do anything.

    @TwitchSupport it's a cat and mouse game, every time twitch updates their detection algorithms the viewbotting companies adapt not sure if penalties alone will solve the issue

  • EmperororeZ
    Emp (@EmperororeZ) reported

    @TwitchSupport I guess the only issue is that people can maliciously viewbot people they don't like to try to ban them. Twitch is surely at least aware of this

    @TwitchSupport There is a reason my numbers look better on KICK Dan. You have abused Twitch to where the world sees it as p**n instead of gaming. Viewbotting is just one of several issues. Your lead streamer is an example of your failure. Along with his orbit. That is all on you bro. Normal people see two things out of your company: A Webcam P**N Service and Hasan Shocking his dog. Thats what normal people see. I know, I have actually talked to people who dont view this as a job oppertunity. Normal People. Those two things are what twitch is known for...
