can you explain your use case and intentions for this, as your PR comment is empty.

Serves same purpose as already present user stats on the viewer-card. Apart from being just a statistic, the ability to view whether the user has a gifted subscription can be helpful in moderator decision-making.

This is useful information, I've just made a custom API to check but sometimes we don't have the time to type out a chat command just to check their sub status before making a mod decision, and a more silent way would be ideal. If this isn't a heavy load PR, I know moderators would appreciate this.

can you also better explain why this is a benefit for moderators? why does it matter if a subscription is gifted or not?

I would say it's about the fact that more then often moderators find themselves hesitating to time out/ban users with active subscription as it might increase validity.

Simply put, to distinguish trolls - E.g. Knowing the fact that user, who has just made inappropriate comment or broken rules, could be a lucky troll who received a gift from a generous user, would solidify the fact that the same user might've not contributed anything positive to the community.

Thanks for the request.

Since we now fetch from GraphQL and recently pruned views from cards, this was easy an easy add without bloating the cards: https://github.com/night/betterttv/commit/2585c13845b6fd943a5dd7d51464e1bc39e6f60f
