Long gone are the days when I used be excited to read update notes for new features... Now I just hope they don't god damn force an update on me.

I went back to an old APK of Twitch and refuse to update to the current dumpster fire.

I use PurpleTV and it's been great. It's a Twitch fork modified to block ads, reduce bloat, and include customisation for chat, player and other components.

Don't know if we can share links here but the APK can be easily found online, still being updated semi-regularly. I won't come back to the official app as long as I'm able. :)

Cheers for that. I had other third party apps way back in the day but they lacked some features. Will check it out.
