Twitch has been experiencing some feature bloat. The guy who thought of gifting subs should be made a millionaire. The guy who came up with channel points should find other work. The former increases value for both the streamer and Twitch, the latter is a simple distraction taking attention away from the stream content and only serves to increase page interactions.

I'm worried they're introducing changes to improve certain metrics and not caring that the changes are basically gaming the metrics.

I also didn't like constantly interacting with channel points, so I made a Firefox extension to do it for me. If you're interested, I could add a setting to hide channel points page updates while still claiming the periodic bonuses.

I’m watching KattsKitchen [0], a cooking streamer. She has one of the very few channel-points interactions I actually like: You can make her partner do push-ups, have either of them wear a bikini apron for 15 minutes, ask their Google Home a question or have them do a Nerf shootout.
