16 years since JustinTV was a thing and this very basic safety feature has finally been implemented. at least it happened at some point.

Go to your Creator Dashboard, click on the Settings tab, then click Moderation. Scroll down to Channel Privileges, and the option to turn this setting on will be there.

I highly recommend Twitch streamers turn this feature on. I've had some stalkers in the past who would have been demotivated from continuing their abusive behavior much sooner if this feature had been implemented before now.

Furthermore, be careful with channel point redemptions that involve jokingly timing out or banning chat users. This new feature could potentially interfere with that particular usecase.

working on a pronoun system for goatgame where you don't need to set your pronouns until someone actively has a reason to ask you

this results in a really funny situation where your boss asks you your pronouns specifically so she can tell someone else you're bad at your job
