Jidion recently took to Twitter to discuss a Zoom meeting with a Twitch representative in which he received news that he’s “never coming back” to the website. Although Jidion and Pokimane have buried the hatchet and collaborated on some projects together since his apology following the hate raids, Twitch maintains its stance against inviting the streamer back to the platform. Jidion has reached a following on YouTube of 5.33 million since his January Twitch ban, far exceeding his Twitch following of 305,000, but still potentially missing some original community members.

Twitch denied Jidion’s 6-month appeal, but it seems like the ban could last forever based on the livestreamer’s response to their Zoom meeting. Because there’s no end to Jidion’s Twitch ban in sight, fans of the content creator may only see his videos through YouTube and can otherwise keep up with him through social media. Jidion continues to prank others through YouTube content which may contribute to Twitch’s hesitancy in bringing him back to the platform given his controversial sense of humor that may quickly get him in more trouble.
Responding to Jidion’s announcement that he won’t be unbanned on Twitch anytime soon, many fans lamented his dismissal from the platform while others questioned Twitch’s wording or motivation. A handful of Jidion’s critics celebrated his continued Twitch ban, while one pointed out that the aforementioned hate raid targeted Pokimane viewers as well as the popular livestreamer herself. Because some viewers were already under the impression that Jidion was permanently banned from Twitch, some replies to Jidion’s community update expressed confusion at Jidion’s Zoom meeting with the Twitch representative taking place to begin with.
