I really don't like this site because the few streamers that I support here don't support me back as well and they don't respond to my whispers or private messages anymore! I hate it when people don't support me back especially when I already cheered or subbed to them for so many times already! :| I wish they also support me back as well and talk to me so it will be fair for my side since I am trying to find like-minded or new friends on this site but it seems that they are not interested to me at all despite being a nice person overall! It's hard especially that I am a really small streamer and even though I stream very seldom, at least my content is different than most of the streamers here! A lot of the streamers that I used to watch from 2022 and below are not streaming in this site anymore and it shows that this is not a good site anymore! And by the way, I hate some of the changes in this site as well, like when the streams are automatically played whenever I log in on my Twitch mobile app, and also the new collaborations feature, I really hate it very much since I hate it when one of my favorite streamers collaborate with another streamer that I am not interested in! Stop copying my favorite underrated electronic artist from Germany even if they've collaborated with some many artists already! I have a feeling that they've copied them with that new unexpected feature! It was better before those new unexpected changes and features was added! Your site's just getting worse, besides your toxic community! Don't neglect or ignore small streamers like us, especially that I don't like the VTubers trends as well and prefers handsome face cam streamers instead (but not toxic people)! I wish this site should go away and Twitch should be banned or stopped since it just makes people worse! I cannot find that streamer or person who is almost similar to me, so I think Twitch is not for me... I know I could meet more true and genuine friends in real life than on this website! Some of the streamers whom I've subbed before have changed now and his community even attacked me even though I was very nice to that streamer, but that top donator b*tchy girl of that streamer talked about something else that I really don't like, so I don't watch that partner streamer anymore and will delete my account soon because of that! I will definitely learn from this experience and will not use this streaming site anymore! Hayz! :|

I had a lot of bad experiences from other streamers (and even viewers from other streams) in this site to be honest! First of all, I've supported a fellow small streamer last year 2022 wherein we had the same follower count before and he was really giving me nice advice at first when his follower count was below seven before, and then, he changed all of a sudden as he continue streaming after his 4th and 5th stream, as he met new people/viewers or followers! And then, what's surprising is that he was raided so early on his 9th stream, and also on his 10th stream on the day after his 9th stream, and it's so early & shocking at the same time when I found out on his tracker / sullygnome that he reached near partner max cv numbers on that stream! I mean, not all small streamers are lucky enough to be raided that early before his 11th stream! I have already done 30+ streams, but still no raids and only a few people follow me every stream or none at all... :( You'll see the difference between the two of us and it's a really somewhat fast growth to him! :o It's also disappointing that he changed a lot after his two raids on his 9th and 10th stream last year and he didn't responded to me anymore after those two surprising raids from him six months ago! He wasn't like that before he was raided and when his follower count was below seven... I have a history of him and the two of us privately... I wish we could talk together someday to resolve my unanswered questions & issues and I don't know why he's not streaming anymore for so many months already! It's so unfair for me and it hurts like hell! People do change as they grow if that's the case / as he meet new people... :( It's a really stressful and toxic site for sure because of that experience and to my other bad experiences before from other streamers that I won't mention here! Don't stream here if you don't like a lot of people - like those annoying trolls, copycat, bad / arrogant people and people doing the Masterchef meta before! But I have to continue streaming until I reach his max viewer count and his follower count and then I'll finally quit streaming when that happens... The people on one of the Twitch groups doesn't even want to help me grow as well and gave me bad advice that is opposite to my beliefs and plans... Most streamers / people on the internet are just fake if that's the case even if I am a nice person overall despite being a loner! I wish they should try to help those small streamers besides myself who are having a hard time to grow and ban those streamers who are not deserving to be popular or those who are bad people overall... I'm not like that and I still deserve to stream even if I don't stream very often because I don't stream popular games most of the time and I am different! Don't give too much exposure to the bigger streamers as well since most of them are toxic, arrogant or just horrible people overall and of course, I don't waste my time watching them and focus on my own life and streaming...

I got bullied multiple times by streamers and viewers for being disabled and for my race as well. They never stop the bullying and seem to use that to bring in viewers because viewers like bullying.

Best streaming platform
January 13, 2024

Twitch has all my favorite cybersport games: CS:GO, Fortnite and League of Legends.
I don't even know how we lived before Twitch existed. I guess it was such a miserable and boring life :)

Twitch is a scam
August 16, 2023

Twitch is scamming platform, they are unethical and unprofessional. They will prey on your money and yet sleep in peace...Please do not sign up to this site...
Witch is scamming platform, they are unethical and unprofessional. They will prey on your money and yet sleep in peace...Please do not sign up to this site...
Payment process is a joke, there is no verification and if you cancel the payment before it went through the payment will just go through and twitch will blame you in doing so. There is no payment verification when signup for the billing agreement with paypal, its just basic professional ethics to have some form of window or check to know if the user has inputed the right amount but twitch doesnt do this... they will happily take your money and blame you...they are just scammers... I absolutely dont recommend this platform...i lost 400 euro just because i enterred the wrong number of subs and yet i hit the cancel button before the payment went through, in my opinion this is a techinical glitch but twitch just brushed it off... there is no live chat or phone number to get proper support, their current online form is a big joke... Plus they take a lot of commissions and streamers barely get any, this is total preying from both viewers and streamers... please dont sign up!

Nowadays twitch is more popular for gambling,scams and porn. And the age restriction is also not regulated properly.

Absolute Bad App

Too many ads!
January 21, 2023

Twitch has changed for the worse… Previous years when I have watched pro-play tournaments I have never ever had ads during the stream. Now the show pauses all the time to show annoying ads.

Twitch = FRUSTRATION
December 8, 2022

If you love listening to your content with random interruptions in the middle of crucial moments of your programming then Twitch is the streaming service for you. Nothing like listening to a comedian telling a joke only to have Twitch cut in and air silence as part of their advertising, so you never get to hear the comedian's punchline. Fabulous! Twitch sucks.

Twitch Rhymes with "Bait and Switch"
November 11, 2022

It seems Twitch is currently engaged in a "bait & switch" scam. In spite of the fact that I PAID for subscriptions because I was promised an AD-FREE experience for doing so, I continue to be inundated with ads on channels to which I subscribed. Twitch's response to my complaint was your typical scammer "Trust us - we're working on it". I refuse to subscribe to any more channels until Twitch corrects this. Nor will I re-scribe when the current ones expire. I'd rather tip content creators directly in order to support them. (But knowing how greedy Twitch is, it wouldn't surprise me if they remove that option from their platform.)

Thieves

Steal your money then refuse to help through emails! No contact phone number either.
Avoid if possible also never give them access to your bank account/PayPal.

Worst website
October 30, 2022

One of the worst websites i ever been on
The streamers on there are very rude and nasty as well and quick to bully you as well
Yet quick to take your money and they nag you to follow them up
As i would avoid this website all together and go else way as i dont like how they ask for a code or some streamers only have followers only rubbish and $#*! website. Avoid if you can and go on youtube or live. Me or younow if u want to stream much better and they have better mods and younow give free coins like live.me where twitch tv is a con as you have to buy them what a rip off, as it suprice this website still going,

I've been having the hardest time trying to find a resolution to a problem I had with Twitch. So, I had participated in an event that promised drops if I had watched a stream for long enough. After it was all said and done, and after claiming my drops, they didn't show up in game. I had made sure to connect my halowaypoint account to my twitch account and to click claim when I received the drop. But nothing came and it has been a constant struggle to figure out who to contact to resolve this issue. I've sent emails to twitch and the channel that was hosting the even and never got a reply.

The thing is even if they couldn't have helped they could have at least gave me some sort of reason why it didn't work. But no, I sent them pictures of what issues I have been experiencing and they decided to close my case... WITHOUT RESOLVING THE ISSUE.

I am really upset with Twitch and have nothing but the up-most discuss on how they treat their clients. Customer service is abysmal and am surprised that they are still in business if they are treating people this way.

Shame on you Twitch.
