I guess it makes sense I could just keep the connection alive by initiating with my own PING if I didn’t receive any. Didn’t cross my mind.
Interestingly I received my only PINGs from Twitch so far only after I sent my own PING to begin with. I’ll have to run some timing on it but it seems like Twitch is waiting too long to send it’s first PING to me so the connection just gets terminated before I have a chance to respond. A little odd but everything seems fixable now.
Thanks!
