Twitch Embed requires Login for Australia - Bug Report / Feature Request
Twitch have recently made a change to their Content Classification: https://blog.twitch.tv/en/2023/06/20/introducing-content-classification-labels/
As-such, for Australian (and probably other) users, we must first login before we can view certain Twitch content (eg: mature-videogame).
As Discord is basically a browser (being Electron based), what I would expect is that it would be able to handle the Twitch embed's request to login so I can view the clip in the embed.
However even for the Discord webapp, it does not properly handle the attempt by the embed to store the authentication token and be able to use it. Though the webapp does get further than the desktop app, in neither context am I able to watch Twitch clips in the embed.
Therefore, Twitch Embeds are effectively all broken (since I usually only ever watch Videogame related ones, and they're all flagged as 'mature-videogame' in the classification) for anyone in a country where the classifications require login to view.
A more detailed write-up with error screenshots can be found here: https://new.reddit.com/r/Twitch/comments/15zpbnk/embedded_player_in_discord_is_not_able_to_login/
The basic request though, is for Discord to address the requirement for certain users (Australian as an example) to be able to view Twitch clips in embeds despite their content classification.
Either by facilitating the login process for an embed within Discord, or potentially as a hacky workaround by rerouting the Embed to make it think everyone using Discord is in the US, where login is not required to view that content.
