Extension summary

Do you follow lots of people on Twitch? Is your following directory filled with people playing a game you don't want to watch? Do you want to narrow your following page to only show a particular game? Following Filters for Twitch lets you do that and more.

This extension injects a UI element into https://www.twitch.tv/directory/following/live

This UI element allows us to filter our followed channels in two ways:

  • Show channels playing only selected games
  • Hide channels playing selected games

Use the checkmark or hit enter in the text area to apply a filter, and use the trashcan to clear your filters.

Note that this extension automatically redirects the "Overview" section of the following page (https://www.twitch.tv/directory/following) to the "Live" section (https://www.twitch.tv/directory/following/live).

NOTE: I developed this extension alone and am confident bugs still exist. If you find any please raise an issue on the github repository for this project: https://github.com/adamburich/Twitch-Following-Filters/

User reviews

Works great. Using this extension helps me make sure I filter out a game I don't want to have spoilers from or see. One thing I might note though is that initially setting the filter results in a search of the category which makes your followed streams that have the keywords all pop up until you refresh the page which makes the filter register. This happened whether the filter was set to hide or show.

I figured it out. Not bad but it still keeps some on the top of the list that don't match my filters. Even so, thank you! This is much needed.
