This includes some YouTubers who are known for their entertaining Minecraft content, like TommyInnit, who has gained over 4.9 million followers on his account thanks to his entertaining videos.
The latest to join the ranks on TikTok is YouTuber Technoblade, who is known for being a part of the wildly popularDream SMP,and multiplayer Minecraft server started by YouTuber Dream, which features some huge creators.
Technoblade uploaded the first video to his account‘iamtechnoblade’on March 19, with the caption, “Technoblade wall reveal.”
As he pointed his camera at the wall he said, “hello citizens of TikTok. It is I, the real Technoblade. My username is @iamtechnoblade because all the cooler usernames were taken by internet hooligans, not happy about this. Anyways I’m here because there’s some guy on this app impersonating me, he’s got like 300,000 followers,” he explained. To prove it was really him the YouTuber even brought his dog Floof on camera.
