Weird Twitch experience

So I get a notification that one of my Twitch followees is streaming and I go watch, and I get a notification that I've been gifted a sub, and I need to type "!join" in the chat to activate it

and then I try to do that but I'm timed out for 12 minutes?

??? Like 1) Usually when I'm gifted a sub I just get it without any extra hassle? And 2) Timeout "automated by *bot*" by what right and why??

Is this some new feature Twitch has started? Has anything like this happened to anyone else?

It looked legitimate to me, it was just in the stream chat. Never seen stuff like that before, though, so I don't know. And no, I didn't get the subscription, couldn't "claim" it or whatever. I unfollowed the channel, that just seemed too fishy to me.

I don't think you ever need to activate a gifted sub, when it's gifted it is yours. Or this is a really weird and super new rule, but I don't think that's the case!

Sounds fishy, the notification you get in chat is usually just to tell the streamer, it was probably some weird joke.
