Kick mocks Twitch, thanks purple platform for banning Amouranth and BruceDropEmOff
The competition between Twitch and Kick took another turn after the most recent bans on the purple platform, and Kick is taking advantage of the restrictions. Twitch already banned BruceDropEmOff for the 4th time in 2023, followed by a one-day ban on popular hot tub streamer Amouranth.
The bans come as Kick continues to aim to recruit the world's top streaming stars, and the site wasted no time in utilizing this latest round of sanctions to entice additional content creators to abandon the service.
