TwitchCon 2024: Twitch Announces Major Policy and Feature Updates

Twitch introduces enhanced broadcasting, transparent enforcement, and new collaborative tools to improve user experience.

Twitch will start providing users with chat excerpts and clips to explain why their accounts were suspended, aiming for greater transparency.
Strikes for low-severity offenses will now expire over time, while high-severity offenses will still result in permanent strikes.
Enhanced Broadcasting will allow streamers to broadcast in 1440p resolution and both horizontal and vertical formats starting early next year.
A new 'Shared Chat' feature will link the chats of multiple streamers during collaborative streams, allowing for a more integrated community experience.
Twitch is expanding its Unity Guilds and Creator Clubs to support diverse communities and foster connections among streamers.
