Men are now censoring themselves as they pretend to work their, uh\u2026 \u2018Joy-Cons.\u2019 Twitch has been a bit strange over the past few weeks. From the short-lived \u201cartistic nudity\u201d era to the various \u2018topless\u2019 and censor bar metas, the platform has been rushed with an influx of streamers who are pushing the community guidelines to the very limit. And, while many streamers embracing the meta have been those who keep OnlyFans channels or have specialized in cosplay and other forms of art that involve the human body on Twitch, average streamers that normally did other content have started to get in on the action. OTK streamer Tectone is one such streamer who decided to go live with a censor bar covering ban-worthy contents on his livestream. He claims he\u2019s started a \u201crevolution\u201d and that other streamers should join in with their \u2018Joy-Cons\u2019 in hand. Streamers embrace censored \u2018Joy-Con\u2019 Twitch meta The \u2018censor bar meta\u2019 was a term used in jest as some of the platform\u2019s top streamers got to the top by pushing the boundaries, but now streamers that normally wouldn\u2019t dabble in this kind of content are using it to seemingly point out the ridiculous nature of people being \u201cnude\u201d on broadcast. Tectone is one such streamer who decided to play with his \u2018Joy-Con\u2019 behind one of the now-ubiquitous censor bars on stream. \u201cI\u2019ve started a revolution it seems. This one\u2019s for all my g**ners out there. Men can do this meta just as well as a woman. Get out there and crank your hog gentlemen.\u201d However, Tectone isn\u2019t the only one. He may be one of the most popular streamers to do it, but he definitely didn\u2019t start the \u2018Joy-Con\u2019 Twitch meta. At least, when it comes to putting a censor bar over bannable \u2018Joy-Cons\u2019. Streamer ShaneYiT did something similar on stream himself, although he had his girlfriend walk in on him with his \u2018Joy-Con\u2019 covered on stream. Things didn\u2019t go too well for him. Then again, Shane got his butt waxed live on stream earlier this year, so this definitely isn\u2019t the most extreme thing he\u2019s done nor the first time he\u2019s pushed Twitch\u2019s community guidelines a bit. With the emergence of the \u2018Joy-Con\u2019 meta, it\u2019s hard to say just how long it\u2019ll take Twitch to figure out a way to crack down on suggestive streams. It\u2019s a tall order, but the \u2018Joy-Con\u2019 meta indicates that things are coming to a head.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitch meta fiasco escalates as men work their \u2018Joy-Cons\u2019 on censor bar streams Tectone | TwitchThough the \u2018Topless\u2019 censor bar Twitch meta has been a mostly female-occupied affair, the lads weren\u2019t going to get left out.
