Dream's recent rise in popularity

Dream recently saw a rise in popularity after his speedruns' legitimacy came under question in December 2020. The Minecraft community was split between fans who supported his runs versus the moderators and others trying to get his runs removed and discredited.

The controversy spiraled as other moderators like DarkViperAU got involved, which led to multiple back-and-forths between Dream and the moderators that transpired on YouTube. Since then, Dream's popularity has shot through the roof, breaking Twitter multiple times in the past few months.
