Questions about 7tv Kick part

[slow thunder]

I was using 7tv on kick. Lately i just disconnect Kick account from my 7tv app. Now I cant sign in again. How can i add my kick account? I want to see my paint tools there too.

Kick broke 7TV’s ability to link accounts a long time ago. We need them to give us an API

So unfortunately you can’t relink your account

would be still possible. there are a few apps which are able to link Kick Accounts, like AeroKick, Kicklet and other stuff.

[soft willow]

well 7TV needs to get to work then

I understand that it would be easier with an API, but as I said, there are a few ways, and to say "we need Kick to give us an API" is just the easy way to not have to deal with it, since we know there will not come a open API very soon.
https://developers.kick.com/ <- here devs can apply for API access.
https://aerokick.app another app which is using a method to Link the Account to there App.
So there are way, if people want to.

well 7TV used to use this kind of method

the janky workaround

but then kick broke it for some reason

without any communication

and it was right when the devs were all going to be busy so they didn't have time to fix it

well I understand, but it's broken for more than 3months...
I used to use Kick as well a lot, and I mean I couldn't use the personal emotes and the channel emotes. Which means I payed for stuff that I wasn't able to use...
In Germany we call that a "Vertragsbruch"

and sadly, with the new 7tv website there came more problems, on top of the known issues

[slow thunder]

All i need is to wait them to fix it i think :(

Good luck
