Hi, recently "Streams" feature was added to Codeforces. I don't mind the sidebar on the homepage. And this is not about that.

I use Codeforces calendar for which I have set 3 notifications in one-hour intervals so that I do not miss contests.

And now, random streams are now being added to the Codeforces calendar, which is polluting calendar schedule and notification space in my devices. I am getting 3 notifications for every random stream I didn't subscribe to, I am sure I am not going to watch any streams about coding in rust or guys playing Roblox and I want to unsubscribe to this while still getting notifications about contests.

I request MikeMirzayanov to either have separate calendars for streams and contests or remove streams from the calendar altogether because there is a "set reminder" feature on most streaming platforms so people who don't want to miss streams can set reminders there instead.

Thanks!

I think separating calendar is a good way. And since streaming is becoming a popular topic in recent actions, I think that there should be a new navigation or discussion page of streaming/video-recording blogs like the ones for EDU-codeforces
