I noticed months and months ago some CSGO matches hosted on Twitch TV would fail to load. "Network Error 2000" among others. Twitch is a youtube competitor when it comes to gaming. (Youtube also owned by google). I can open these URLS for CSGO matches in literally any other browser w/o issue. There's nothing really in the way of articles on this or people with "fixes". They're straight up trying to fuck a competitor by breaking their own shit (the chrome browser) and it's obvious.

It may also be caused on your end by an extension that blocks stuff. Do you use uMatrix or Ghostery, anything like that?

I do use ghostery and ublock origin among other stuff like https only. I can uninstall all that in chrome and google products still somehow break shit. I'm telling ya. It's not a coincidence. I'm using linux, mac, windows, and a chromebook for guests in this house. Everything works fine in regards to twitch until... I install a google product. My google products will work about 50% of the time when it comes to loading twitch.

Is your "enhanced anti-tracking" turned on in Ghostery?

Because that's your issue if it is.

It can be completely uninstalled on a fresh chrome install. No logins. Chrome will still break twitch streams like 50% of the time w/o anything. Sometimes I restart the machines it works fine. When they've been running a day or two they break twitch.
