Question / Help Viewers Getting Laggy Stream

So, over the last week or so I've had quite a few streamers comment that the stream gets quite laggy sometimes (5% or so of my viewers). We haven't nailed it down to one particular thing, but this seems to be in part due to Twitch's tomfoolery behind the scenes.

From what I've heard the audio seems fine, but the video gets really laggy. Where it'll stop or get jerky and then go, then 15 seconds later it'll do it all over again. I've had some comment that it's just my stream and all of their other streams are fine, some say they're having problems with other streams too.

Some of the users are amounting this to european problems. Twitch in europe being kinda if and go, but I've had users from other parts of the world comment on it.

I've had some people say it's terrible one night, they come back the next and it's fine.

-Some people say poping out the stream fixes it (sometimes it doesn't)

-Some say refreshing fixes it (sometimes it doesn't)

-I had one person comment that the stream was fine, I went out of game to look at the web browser, went back in ten minutes later and their stream started getting horribly jerky.

I personally can't replicate these issues nor can most other people. On my laptop the stream is fine. At the same time there are definitely enough people saying this is happening for it to warrant concern. Some of these users are long term followers too and the stream worked just fine for them before.

I'm dropping a tiny fraction of frames (my isp) and my settings have not changed in months.

I know Twitch is changing their backend right now and it's definitely doing something. On my dashboard it says my stream is 'acceptable', but not 'excellent'. It reports my keyframes being one every 8.333s instead of 2, and I'm not using CBR (but I have no desire to use CBR as to save bandwidth for both me and my viewers). If anything this perhaps could relate to the keyframe being noted, but I don't know how to change this manually in OBS.

Log included for fun.

Is it just me? Are other streamers having issues like this?

Well, I will not go into great detail on your settings because I have a sneaking suspicion you will go to great lengths to justify and/or defend them. Wrong as they may be.

Regardless -- Twitch's overall quality of service has seen a steady decline for months now and from a personal perspective a very sharp decline in the past couple of days. Me, I am completely unable to watch any stream without it stuttering at the moment and I have confirmed over and over again that it is not on my end. It really is Twitch.

Critical mass has been reached. And there is very little you and I can do about that. All we can do is hope that either these new requirements help to improve the quality of their service or they implement some other change/course of action that solves their recent issues.

Changing keyframes seemed to fix the issue.

I had one user on a iPad comment that the audio was dsyncing for him though, progressively getting worse through the cast. Other users didn't have issues (mobile or on desktop).
