This is likely a stupid question, but is there a way to disable YT chat (not just hide it), even temporarily, on live streams? While I am happy to see a large number of folks (140K+) tune in for Day 1 of the 2022 OWL Playoffs yesterday (even if it was only to earn rewards), the amount of chat and spam in chat is leading to very pronounced memory leaks in my browser! Like, Google Chrome should not be consuming a constant 3 GB of RAM, especially if I set the stream to play on the lowest possible settings and there are no other tabs open!
And by the way, for those asking about OWL Perks rewards being “missing”…I am doing my best to forward reports to the appropriate parties at Blizzard, so hopefully this is on their radar as the OW team files back into the office this morning…keep the reports coming!
