In the "2020–present: soft retirement and move to Japan" section, it endes with "On 29 June, Kjellberg announced he would be taking an indefinite hiatus from YouTube due to his imminent fatherhood." Which makes it seem like he stopped uploading since then. But he is still uploading(last upload yesterday). Something should be added to indicate this Quick-ease2020 ( talk) 10:12, 6 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi everyone,

I would like to propose that the term "Pewds" be redirected to the PewDiePie Wikipedia page. "Pewds" is a widely recognized nickname for PewDiePie, and redirecting it would help users find the page more easily.

Thank you for considering this suggestion.
