Kick has also been trying to lure streamers from other platforms. Already big-name streamers like Twitch star Adin Ross have moved to this new platform after receiving a perma-ban from the Amazon-owned streaming platform. Recently, another streamer has followed in Ross’ footsteps, joining Kick after receiving a band from Twitch.

Banned Twitch streamer joins Kick

A small Polish streamer, Sideneuke, became subject to controversy in February after driving over a puppy while live streaming on Twitch. This incident happened because the streamer was not paying attention to the road and was distracted by her phone. She received a lot of criticism from people on the internet.

This incident with the puppy eventually led to Twitch taking strict action against her and banning the Pole from their platform. So, not being able to stream anymore on the purple platform, she decided to transition over to Kick. It is still unknown when she started streaming on this new streaming platform.

However, she hasn’t been able to attract a huge audience on the platform so far, as she only has 139 followers there. Moreover, she has been seen not driving in any of the Kick streams so far. It seems she is sticking to her words. After the accident, Sideneuke had gone back to check on the dog and she mentioned being in touch with the owner.
