Twitch has rolled back the Clip Prompt feature, saying it was released by mistake and not yet ready for testing.

Reposted from Zach Bussey 🍁

Twitch will soon test a Clip prompt when it detects that the chat is moving faster than usual.

Oh thank goodness!

Isn't this like the 2/3rd time they used the 'mistake rollout' excuse? I don't mind but just sounds silly using that same excuse every time. 🥲

I’m glad! It was so annoying having it pop up all the time

This makes me want to design a paparazzi alert

This was not good. It was something that would show up when the streamer had not even started stream yet so how can anyone clip anything?

It's a bad feature that is just going to be demoralising for smaller streamers. Chats are not always going to move at 100mph.

Thank goodness! I was going crazy with that thing pestering me every 15 minutes. It is clearly NOT ready for deployment yet.

mothergamer.bsky.social•84 days ago

Thank goodness. That thing was a bit annoying constantly popping up.

fraternalhero.bsky.social•84 days ago

Every time I've chatted today, this has popped no matter how busy chat was lmao

dayesdawn.bsky.social•84 days ago

Good. It was a bit much.

Weird how Twitch constantly recalls features "released by mistake" that "were not yet ready for testing" when everyone collectively hates said new feature. 🤔

oh thank goodness because that was the WORST.

They should probably leave it there while they're at it. Useless, annoying feature.

makimoke.bsky.social•83 days ago

Yeah, that was bound to happen. The idea is worth exploring, but the trigger was completely wrong.

That being said, I'll be devil's advocate here and say that "detecting a clippable moment" outside of pulling straight from a game's data is really tough.

Hoping they can revise and polish this idea!

I noticed that was going off when there was NO ONE IN MY CHAT SPEAKING. I love my lurkers, but thats singling them out, come on!

I wish they’d fix viewing clips on mobile. I don’t want to watch portrait mode. Nobody I watch including me bothers to make them portrait. Clips are unwatchable on mobile now.
I’m sure they will “fix” it by changing it back in 6 months like they did with all the mobile app features they broke.

It was kind of annoying if it popped up and you have a DJ channel 🤷‍♀️

bryanlake.bsky.social•84 days ago

I thought it was annoying.
