LeafyIsHere

Content creator LeafyIsHere announced that he will start streaming on Rumble, becoming the latest big name to join the alternative video publishing platform.

It comes after the controversial content creator, who made his name in the YouTube reaction scene, was unbanned on Twitter after a year-long suspension.

LeafyIsHere was banned from YouTube in 2020 after uploading a series of videos criticizing Pokimane, and also had his Twitch account permanently suspended, for “causing risk to the community”.

One commenter said: “Just downloaded the app and made my account, I look forward to Leafy’s return!”

Another complimented Rumble’s policy, saying: “Bless your hearts for having a free speech unfiltered platform. You’re doing what YouTube is failing at.”

It’s unclear if Leafy will return to the reaction and commentary content that made him so popular, or if he’ll branch out into different kinds of videos.

This makes Leafy the latest established creator to join Rumble, which presents itself as a free-speech alternative to YouTube.
