Arguably the biggest female streamer on Twitch of all time, Imane “Pokimane” Anys recently hit 8 million followers on the platform.
Since reaching the landmark, Pokimane now owns the 6th most followed Twitch channel and is also the most followed female streamer on the platform. The streamer was visibly excited on the occasion and initially claimed that she was not “ready,” as she hadn’t thought of a giveaway or had any other plan for the occasion.
Regardless, Pokimane called Twitch her home and thanked her viewers for their constant love and support for almost 8 years. The streamer also posted about the achievement on Twitter, and was congratulated by a range of prominent internet personalities.

As the streamer did not have a plan for the occasion, Pokimane initially asked her viewers to “unfollow” her for some time and not let her cross the 8 million mark. When her chat obliged, she was stunned and claimed that it was the first time people had listened to her when she just hit a followers-goal. Regardless, Pokimane seemed overwhelmed and called Twitch her home:
“Thanks, chat. Thanks, guys! I don’t even know what to say. Thank you so much for dummy thick number. 8 mill on Twitch I appreciate you guys so much. You know Twitch is my home. It’s where I started my internet journey and I am so happy to still be here and I am happy that it feels like in a sense that I left my mark. When I look at this number, I think for starters it is overwhelming and astounding and huge. But really, all I see is so many memories.”
