Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys is no average content creator and the place where she conducts her business matters to a lot of people. On Twitch, where she has streamed exclusively under contract for two years, she has over 8.9 million followers. Across both her Twitter profiles and her Instagram account, Poki has over 12.5 million followers. And, of interest to those wondering where she may stream next, she already has 7-plus million followers on her two YouTube channels. In a January 31 tweet, the incredibly popular streamer announced that her Twitch contract has officially ended.

Accompanying the announcement, she included a happy, but sad smiling, crying emoji. Teasing her \u201cnext chapter,\u201d she also said that fans will be able to see her again on February 8. While this isn\u2019t clearly linked to any streaming platform, many are wondering if this means a switch to streaming on YouTube. Pokimane leaving Twitch for YouTube Gaming? Just five minutes after Poki\u2019s tweet, YouTube Gaming put out a cryptic message of their own that has deepened speculation about the streamer\u2019s next plans. In the past, Poki has made jokes about YouTube\u2019s streaming offerings, but nothing venomous enough to suggest she wouldn\u2019t join the wave. With Twitch streamers like Ludwig swapping over and Poki\u2019s friend Valkyrae teasing other signings, many believe the stars are pointing toward Poki jumping ship as well. Following YouTube Gaming\u2019s tweet, a common guess has been \u201cImane,\u201d which certainly fits the character spaces cryptically included\u2026 as well as the current hype train.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
