    The only thing that really bothers me is that the porn get shoved on the front page.

    I wanna open Twitch on my living room TV to watch SC2 and tiveux something is painting her tits on my screen already.

        Just stop watching shit using twitch streams like a 10yo because it’s trash software and always has been.

          It works fine for me, but I mostly watch one streamer who only streams on Twitch. My ad blocker blocks their stupid ads on stuff I periodically check out that I’m not subbed to (e.g. MP events hosted by someone else), so it’s generally a good experience.

          However, the front page is absolute cancer, and it’s why I don’t watch many other streams. I just want my steamer and related content, and a few random favorited streamers from other games I very occasionally watch. I feel a little bad about the ad blocker, but that’s because there’s no in-between AFAIK where I can sub to 1-2 channels and still get no ads on the very rare occasions I’ll watch something else (less than once/month).

            I do this with 1 streamer, too. I sub with prime though.

            Ive seen the odd stream of a related streamer but normally just catch vods on youtube for anyone related.

            Who is your one streamer out of interest?
