Career
edit2010–2018: Early online presence
editAlexis's very first YouTube channel is called DjYeroc123. It was created in October 29, 2010. Alexis posted short stories, gameplays and guides of the video game Club Penguin. The channel was active for over a year and a half until it was discontinued in August 2012.[6]
Alexis began his main YouTube channel in 2013[1][3][7] under the name QuackityHQ, where he first posted short videos of the game Toontown Online. Inside the game, the word Quackity was utilized to censor words that aren’t allowed in chat when a character of the duck species is the one typing it. Quackity later became his online username and would later use ducks as the icon of his brand.[1][8]
Alexis created his Twitch account Quackity, on September 4, 2013. He did not stream frequently until 2019.[9]
2018–2020: YouTube popularity
editAlexis has gained particular renown on YouTube for his series of videos called Discord Got Talent, a series where he and a few guest judges review people’s talents on Discord. The judges have buzzes and can choose to approve or not approve participants in a format that is reminiscent of popular television competition shows, as the name of the series would suggest. Notable guest judges include American YouTubers MrBeast and Dream, English YouTuber KSI, and Canadian Twitch streamer Pokimane.[1][10]

Later, after abandoning George for sleeping through the event, he formed an impromptu political party with Jschlatt to form SchWAG2020. They won with 46 percent of the popular vote to POG2020’s 45 percent.[11]
In July 2021, he collaborated and played Minecraft with Breaking Bad actor Dean Norris.[1][12]
In October 2021, he appeared on the infamous Twitch Leaks, which revealed the top Twitch streamers earnings from August 2019 to October 2021. Alexis was ranked 73 on the list, with a reported payout of $1,065,157.18 during this time period.[1][13]
In December 2021, Alexis participated in The Creator Games 3, an influencer tournament created by MrBeast featuring 15 competitors with a grand prize of $1,000,000.[14][15]

Since he joined, Alexis has been regularly streaming on his Spanish Twitch channel, QuackityToo[16] while playing on the server alongside other massive Spanish creators like Rubius and Willyrex.[1][17]
On February 28, 2023, Alexis participated in Twitch Rivals: Squid Craft Games 2 (later renamed Twitch Rivals: Survival Cup 2 due to copyright), a Squid Game-based Twitch creator game featuring 200 Twitch streamers including AuronPlay, Rubius, Amouranth, and many more.[18][19][20]
