Revert the gift sub badge "inactive" timeout / Make gifted subscription badges permanently visible again
Quietly and suddenly changing a permanent reward to be a temporary one, and especially making it requiring any ongoing payment, is nothing short of disrespectful to our supporters. Gifting subs is a privilege, and gifters should be forever championed for their monetary support by both creators AND Twitch.
We NEVER forget our sub-gifters, and you all shouldn't either!

you shouldn't have to repeatedly pay for achievements you've unlocked previously. this is unfair.
financial circumstances change for everyone. my top gifters of all time are currently unable to afford gifting a single sub. i'm worried this will drive historically valuable users off the platform and discourage long-term community members from hanging out in chat because they're being bombarded with messages reminding them about their current financial status.
it's giving "forget what you've done for me, what have you done for me LATELY?" which is so toxic. please walk this back.
