X Live
X Live Chat Emotes emotes on X live streams, on desktop
X live chat is plain text. There are no X emotes, and 7TV, BTTV and FFZ don't cover X. The Blerp extension is how a stream's chat on X gets emotes: 7TV and FFZ globals and the streamer's Blerp emotes, as pictures, on desktop.
What shows on X with the extension
- 7TV and FFZ global emotes, typed by name, as pictures.
- The streamer's Blerp emotes, when they have some.
- BTTV emotes as names only: X blocks BTTV's picture host.
- Desktop Chrome and Firefox on x.com; the X app shows text.

For streamers on X
Add Blerp emotes to your chat and they show for desktop viewers with the extension, and play in your X live alerts for everyone. If you also stream on Twitch, your Blerp emotes are the same set everywhere; your 7TV, BTTV and FFZ Twitch set carries to Kick and YouTube, not to X, which has no channel sets to fill.
Questions

Can viewers on the X app see emotes?
No. Emote extensions are desktop browser extensions.
