I built a Twitch desktop client with an ad-blocking and VOD playlists

Hey everyone,

I wanted a cleaner, standalone desktop experience for watching Twitch streams, so I built Twitch Retold

Key Features:

  • Ad-Free Viewing: Ad mitigation so you can watch streams uninterrupted
  • Lightweight Desktop App: Dedicated app instead of keep the tab opened
  • Cross-Platform: Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Playlist function: Automatically organizes past broadcasts and game playthroughs in chronological order making it easy to binge-watch series or missed streams.

You can grab the latest version here:

Feedback and suggestions are welcome!

Fixed My Twitch Ad Block Temporarily

What’s the first thing you turn off when a website stops working: Ad blocker, VPN or DNS filtering?

You know that moment when a site suddenly won’t load properly and you have no idea what’s breaking it? Could be the VPN, the ad blocker, or some DNS filter running in the background.

I usually end up turning things off one by one until it works again. But it got me thinking: if a privacy tool regularly breaks websites and you have to disable it anyway, is it actually protecting you or just creating more problems?

Can't get rid of Ads.

So long story short, for some reason YouTube keeps spamming ads for some dating website name Taimi at me. I've blocked them, and sent messages saying I don't think some of these ads are appropriate when your apparently trying to make the main app into the kids app, and for like the past 2 days I've seen an ad for it at least 3 times.

They removed this from the YouTube reddit page even tho I've told them that they keep sending them.
