I have done a small update tonight and wrote up a new page for the site. This new page will display a list of people who have set their Twitch or Youtube address in their profile. It will also tell you if someone is live on Twitch.
For the "(Online)" indicator to work, you need to have your Twitch channel properly set in the UserCP, the correct formatting is this:
Your channel only, not profile or anything else. I've done my best to code in detections if people forget things like http or https, but there's only so much I can check for.

I will look to see if I can add an online indicator for Youtube livestreams too. On top of that I will look to add other services like hitbox and whatever is popular for Linux gamers to view and stream on.
I have an idea on how to show only people who are online and streaming right now, but that's phase 2 of the roll-out as I have to get it correct.
This is just a small feature, but for those of you looking for something new to watch, I hope it's helpful.
If you have suggestions, let me know. It's very much a WIP, so keep that in mind.
Ps. If you don't want to be listed, you can simply remove your links from your profile at any time. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Hey Liam,
I just wanted to add my twitch channel to my profile but I can't cause the system keeps telling me "That is not a correct Youtube URL format, please use a correct URL like: https://www.youtube.com/gamingonlinux.";
But I don't have a youtube channel and didn't want to add one. Maybe you did something wrong in your sanity checks (like always checking the youtube field, not only if it is not empty ?) Would be cool to fix that ;)
