Chatterino
Add list of followed live streams
Currently Chatterino has a feature to show red dots on any stream that's live, or to give live notifications for particular streams. However, to get a list of all live streams, you either need to have a tab open for everyone on your follow list, or need to open an external app (twitch.tv in a web browser, streamlink twitch gui, or something else). If there were a tab or button somewhere to show all live followed streams, and then perhaps an easy way to open a tab for any live followed stream and/or open the stream in streamlink, that would enable people to only need to keep chatterino open to check who's live instead of other apps as well.
This is exactly what Chatty offers when you do CTRL+L.
In Chatty doing so gives you a box with the list of current live channels that you follow, including the number of viewers, uptime, category and title. Then you can right click to launch any of the listed streams with streamlink or just join the chat in a new tab.
This feature is so convenient and intuitive I keep using Chatty just for that, despite having overall better performance with Chatterino.

We definitely need this, having to add every channel ourselves is not enjoyable.

I am new to this program and this was something I immediately felt was missing.
Unlike #1916 I'd rather not have that as a popup but somewhere in the main window. This program has far too many popups as it is.
How exactly is this different from a /live split?
It's the same as a combination of both our /live split & live notifications, but without the necessity of setting it up yourself.
I tested it on chatty before and it was super annoying getting the "live" push notification for every single stream I follow - but I understand the reasoning for wanting it.
I figured that /live thing could work, as far as I understand it, but then I would need to have chatterino constantly open and see who went live within the last ~5 hours to get a good idea of who might be live now.
I would rather have something that works similar to what Twitch does on their website. A REST call on startup and every n minutes to get a list of live streamers you follow. Display that list, add some buttons so you can easily open up chat or video for that particular streamer.
