Auto Refreshing of userlist? #435

Open rebellion1969 opened 3 years ago

Unsure if this is a bug which I suspect it is. I notice at times the userlist does not update the user list and names remain in chatty that when you check them against the list of actual users in chat using a browser on Twitch are not actually there. So is this a bug - users still being shown as in chat when they actually arent.

Function request: chatty to auto refresh userlist by sending a call to twitch api to update the user list say like every 5 mins or so - that would probably sort this (bug) out.

chatty has been like that for years indeed

but adding more api calls, especially automatic, isnt the best solution imho

while twitch's website also doesnt always update stale viewers

probally something to do with how their IRC implementation is called by chatty and twitch's IRC itself not sending a "leaving" notification, or chatty isnt receiving it
