Have to reload Twitch channel to see messages sent via IRC socket

Not sure if this is expected or not. I don’t quite understand how I provide Nonethewiserer and see JOIN #Nonethewiserer on the fourth to last line of the output, when - like you say - it should be lowercase. I’m not looking for an explanation (you’ve been very helpful already) - I’m just sharing this information because I can’t square it. Maybe it makes perfect sense though. Anyways, now I cannot reproduce the successful message sent after refresh after retesting.

Twitch will still let you join a “invalid” channel, you just won’t get any inbound chat messages/sent by others

You need to join nonethewiserer

Rooms are idenfitied by the login not the display name

So you load

https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users?login=nonethewiserer

And check the login
