  • HarmedGawa Gawa 🦎 (@HarmedGawa) reported

    Twitch is busted, I click "Start Streaming" in OBS, it has no issues but twitch never makes my channel go live and show the actual stream. Great Website.

  • Lady_Bear_26 Kate (@Lady_Bear_26) reported

    @TwitchSupport I can't go live on Xbox. The widget on the screen says I'm online, but the channel remains offline to viewers/mods. Is there an outage?

  • Remingaa Remi 🖤 (@Remingaa) reported

    @TwitchSupport clicking start stream in obs told im live in obs but when i look on twitch my stream isn't live... help

  • dvadoodles Hasegawa Shoyo - Pre-Debut 🇨🇦 (@dvadoodles) reported

    @morgeestreams @JectiIe What does that mean??? I’m a vtuber and it’s just some twitch problem??

  • RicoandDarius Rico! Yes im a hyena but DAMN lions are hot (@RicoandDarius) reported

    Tried to do our bi-weekly podcast for @twitchwinnipeg and the stream wont go live and I think it's been a lot of people that are having this issue. @TwitchSupport

  • TheZachariahEXP ZEE ZEE 🎙🎮 | BLM (@TheZachariahEXP) reported

    Seems like there's an issue with Twitch right now! We'll try again at 9:30 and if that doesn't work, I'll just stream tonight's gameplay on youtube (@/thezachariahexp)! Sorry for the delay!

  • Synthose Synthose (@Synthose) reported

    Huh, I guess @Twitch @TwitchSupport have their hands full, but I might as well throw my voice into the void: I Cannot seem to connect via OBS or StreamLabsOBS. The program says I'm live, twitch does not. Help?

  • Resignade resign (@Resignade) reported

    is twitch not working? the one night i can finally stream?

  • AlmaHexblade Alma ☕ Hexblade (@AlmaHexblade) reported

    How odd, there's an issue with Twitch right now? It seems I'm not able to go live...

  • JimmySkinny Jimmy Skinny (@JimmySkinny) reported

    @tennesseebandit yea but this has NEVER been a twitch problem. It’s been a streamer problem. Anyone streaming music knows they are breaking laws. It’s no different that someone streaming a movie on Netflix while streaming it on twitch. It’s on the streamer not twitch. Just my thoughts.

  • FujianWash V (@FujianWash) reported

    @MichiganGrower @ExoHydraX @Twitch You are the problem are you making your kids watching

  • britchot Britchot (@britchot) reported

    @TwitchSupport having issues getting live through OBS, forwarded the port and ensure the firewall isn't the issue. Is it only me?

  • Coy_Boii Coy Cow Boi (@Coy_Boii) reported

    So.. OBS says I'm streaming.. But @Twitch says I'm not.. We are still trying to fix the issue!

  • quicktruths_ Quick Truths (@quicktruths_) reported

    restarted my computer three times thinking it was a system issue… turns out twitch and streamlabs both down lmaoo 😭

  • ynoTFPS Tony (@ynoTFPS) reported

    @TwitchSupport Having issues going live, is that a me issue or a server-side issue for Twitch? It says on OBS I'm live on 3 different accounts I've tried but the accounts themselves won't go live.

  • M0renike_ MORENIKETV (@M0renike_) reported

  • KuroMizana 🌸KuroMizana🌸 Commissions Open! (@KuroMizana) reported

  • MaineMania MaineMania (@MaineMania) reported

    Well apparently Twitch is down... @TwitchSupport any ETA on these issues?

  • geraldg03 RealSuperGG (@geraldg03) reported

    I'm live on OBS but Twitch is not receiving the signal 🤨 @Twitch help?

  • justin_cummings kiki's treat delivery service (@justin_cummings) reported

    it seems like there's been some twitch outages and that may be the issue. OBS shows me as streaming but i still appear as offline on Twitch. @TwitchSupport any ideas?

  • CupcakeDoomsday Doomsday Cupcake (@CupcakeDoomsday) reported

    I am extremely sorry everyone! I am having huge tech issues, Twitch won't allow me to go live. Honestly, had a bit of a breakdown about it but there is not much I can do about it at this time. I am so sorry for the short notice, trust me, I feel completely awful about this.
