Everything is locked. behind premium features now and the UI rework is absolutely terrible. The only worthwhile features here are the channel point auto-claim, drops, and maybe some extra emojis. Everything else is freemium bloat and has continuously gotten worse over the years.

I ain't mad about devs trying to monetize a wildly successful product, and I ain't even mad about choosing a freemium model. But making the existing free features actively worse, and shoving the paid model in your face at every opportunity is just comically nasty. Y'all ain't a triple A games studio. And even those don't get away with it this audaciously.

*STICK A FORK IN THIS EXT - BTTV IS DEAD*

BTTV was useful for a good long while. Clear out the nonsense, don't jerk around the user, user is grateful. But a couple of years ago, whoever holds the reins started seeing dollar signs. As of today, somebody has gone full Elon - complete redesign, nag/pester/bully the users into Freemium, baseline functionalities either removed or not findable.

But damn, they loaded in plenty of PREMIUM nonsense. The annoyances and keywords are all the standard garbage - but the vibe as a five-year user has gone from JOIN NOW to WHY AREN'T YOU LOGGED IN YET to WHY AM I NOT MAKING MONEY OFF YOU.

Downright uncomfortable.

i'll set it back to 5 when it works again but i just realized the add-on just doesn't work on Firefox anymore and from the reviews here it seems it has been this way for two months

Doesn't work anymore on Firefox. Stopped keeping my settings.
