Twitch Chat Reader

A mostly self-contained client to Twitch chat, use as OBS overlay.

This uses justinfan+number as a way to read chat without auth. Also, it loads badge data from twitchinsights.net, so that may break in the future. Use at your own peril.

Demo (uses channel twitch.tv/amaz, on at 4pm CET)
Demo 2 (iMessage-style bubbles) (also twitch.tv/amaz)

Instructions

• download index.html and tmi.min.js
• set channel and options (line ~100)
• set font to use in CSS (line ~10)
• set up in OBS as Browser Source ("local file")

This was working in 2022. If it's not, don't @ me.
