In just one year, Aidan had already gained over two million followers on his primary TikTok profile. He even created two more profiles with the handles @pshguy and @aidswilliams. However, during this time, there was uncertainty about the future of TikTok in the country due to the US President’s threat to ban it. This made Aidan consider focusing on the newly announced Reels feature on Instagram. In an interview with Forbes, he mentioned brainstorming ways to gain a bigger audience on Instagram. He also started including his Instagram username in the captions of his TikTok videos, which helped him gain 10k new followers on Instagram. Aidan even cancelled his plan to move to Los Angeles out of fear that his source of income would dry up. Although he became more active on Instagram and got his profile verified in November 2020, he mainly posted pictures with his friends and family from school and his various trips. Despite becoming less active on social media in general after entering college, he continued to post videos on TikTok.
