PSA: Twitch App Running/Loading So Slow? Try this.

###Add --no-proxy-server to your Twitch shortcut target.

  1. Right click your Twitch shortcut and select "Properties"
  2. Make sure you're on the "Shortcut" tab of the window that opens
  3. In the "Target" field, add the following after the path (leave a space): --no-proxy-server (example)
  4. Click OK or Apply

I do not know anything about Electron, so I can't speak to how this helps - but mine now personally loads a lot faster, ymmv.

Why is it connecting to a proxy in the first place? Which proxy is it? Do you happen to have a system wide proxy configured or is it just Twitch's thing?

No proxy on my side, it's something with Electron/Twitch's end.

Try not using that bloated piece of garbage instead and switch to an open and fast alternative such as multimc.

I use MultiMC - this is just something I found and may be useful for those who use the Twitch Launcher.
