Twitch

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.

Twitch oversexualizes young female streamers and places them on recommended to pull people to those streams.

In 2018, while I was hired to assist in Twitchcon, during gameplay and other events, I often saw staff gawking at underage women and grouping underaged girls. We set up a Ras-Pie in and gave the wifi out to the staff to find out what was going on behind the scenes. We found that many of them were trading nudes of underage girls and joking about it in staff quarters. Often sharing their own videos of touching the underaged people and trying to compete with other staff of who can get the female streamer into bed quicker.
During a small gaming tournament nearby with a few of the gaming groups, we were asked to manipulate code in order to allow certain people to win and use admin privileges to console and inject extra perks for the players they wanted to win. Giving damage boosts, health boosts, taking away damage levels etc. They support their top-tier streamers with view bots to make them look more popular. While streamers such as Ninja was streaming during that Era we were ordered to inject close to 15,000 view bots and spam the chat with basic chatbot nonsense to try to get his views populated. They used server bots to support their bigger streamers and then boost youtube, insta, facebook, or whatever other socials they wish, to push their views and credentials to fraudulently trick sponsors into paying for their ad times or product plugs into the streams or events.

It's literally fraud then they are accepting several million dollars from a sponsor for a stream or event, that is eventually just flooded with view bots and not even real viewers.

Twitch always screws over female streamers with their content by allowing over-sexualized substances to exist on their clips and often, if the clip is removed from twitch, the staff will always upload those clips to alternate websites to keep it online forever. When Takedown requests are sent to twitch, they purposely sit behind legal gray areas of "processing" to allow viewers to see or find over-sexualized content of a streamer, so twitch gets more views, regardless of the damaging effects it could have on the person being victimized. Often refusing to allow authorities to comb through their records and using a good lawyer wall to help oversexualize streamers, versus simply taking down the pornographic or leaked nude content. As that draws more people into the site.

Twitch owns their own view bot websites, even though it's against their own TOS. They save all clips and videos and sell their sexualized content online from servers that are located out of the USA, since the US and international law can't touch those locations or be forced to remove the content.

Twitch also has no customer support and refuses to ever answer support questions in relation to direct questions. They will always copy-paste something that looks similar without directly reading support requests. They sit around their office and laugh at people sending in requests and make fun of people who are sending in legitimate technical issues with their site or other revenue-based inquiries. They only specifically focus on their top tier streamers.

Twitch also supports money laundering and even actively goes OUT to people who wish to wash funds through their website to promote the concept. As a streamer may accept donations and have a small tax fee to pay. They are "donations" at root. If a person wishes to wash their money, they can use alternate payment methods to submit donations to themselves on stream, to make it look like they are getting large amazing donations, but in reality, they are paying themselves with their own money and using the platform to wash their money, so they can legally bypass regulatory measures of money collection. AKA accepting dirty or illegal funds and then washing through twitch as a donation source. Twitch makes those bots happen. They send the dirty money to twitch, Twitch makes the bots and payment systems through their website. Then the mass donations or many small donations go to the streamer to wash it.

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.)

This is one of the worst apps ever. It is very inappropriate for everyone. It's against free speech and the content on there is insanely bad.

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.

This site is plain bad. I got suspend for asking for sexual favors for which is not true. There law firm that represents Twitch.Tv DAVIS WRIGHT TREMAINE LLP will not help me at all.

I was joined twitch in few 3 months of June ago and I was being lied and being hated and I was disgusted when the streamers treated me like crap and I bet twitch community hates towards autism and I was lied and deceived aka betrayed heart broken and I was being ignored IGNORED by those awful streamers and I been so much hated on twitch and I got banned from those streamers

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!

Useless customer support team and the worst expeirence attempting to stream on this platform, legit wouldn't recommend to anybody.

This is a community where the police are 13yo boys. What could be worse. An extremely toxic place...

This is the dumbest app ever made, somehow my account isnt on their anymore, cant make a new one says i make the account too fast like what kind of app wont let you make an account because you created it too quickly… such a stupid company who just wastes peoples time.

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,

Trash site finding new ways to take money that creators get and put it in their own pockets. Absolutely atrocious. Absolutely not recommended for anyone that cares about the well being of the people they are watching. Do not spend any money, unless you are giving it directly to the streamer.

Twitch is the most racial and homophobic platform I've ever seen. Supporting terrorism and hate? Ok Bullying and racism? Ok, that's Twitch

Let's be short and blunt here, save you time and tell you exactly as it is.

Twitch's customer service is complete and utter trash incapable of handling a ticket, doing it at a decent time, and still marking the "unresolved ticket" as "resolved." Even when the ticket exposes simple or obvious and unnecessary bugs on their website, it is just brushed off and marked resolved. They are just persistent and continuous problems ignored by twitch while customer service continues to do absolutely nothing to inform their IT, if they even have that department.

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.

I used Twitch for a couple of months during lockdown. Things were ok, I noticed some dodgy stuff in 'Just Chatting' but overall it helped me with lockdown boredom and I even tipped some streamers.
Then George Floyd was murdered and the world went nuts. I completely support the protests 100%, but the riots sickened me. And then I saw the riots streamed live on twitch, with TWITCH streamers eating snacks and shouting support for the riots. Meanwhile business's are burned and so on.
Twitch has a disgusting business model and I hope Mixer leaves them in the dust.

I lost $45. Like three month in unvolunteered month i only signup for one month and than charge me $20 for only for one month but i not sub to the channel they took my money and ran with it. 4.99 more like $20 for a sub but i not sub to the channel lease make me a sub to the channel

Filled with garbage people who make a living off sitting on their lazy arses, Any girl can be naked as long as they paint their body? Ight let your children watch that, Also if you have an account you cant log in?

Literally they do the stupidest thing on their twitch channel... their channels have EXTREME partial nudity. Taylor_Jevaux (her twitch channel name) literally does exercise in A GOSH DARN BUNNY COSTUME and twitch isnt doing anything about it. Amouranth (her twitch channel name) is literally rating skimpy bikini's live on cam. Taylor_Jevaux and Amouranth are clearly looking for attention because most women wouldn't do this. You Twitch, your community guidelines says stuff about partial nudity and suggestive sexual. But you Twitch, arent doing anything about it :/

Untrustable, can't keep connected, keep getting bumbed off and frozen, too many pop ups. Not satisfying chat not user friendly and part of the supresseion of free speech.,
