Linus Tech Tips

Narcissist YouTuber, but I repeat myself, has trouble backing down and taking feedback.

Now that there's some drama people are dogpiling with more drama, related to ex employees.

My guess is we're not going to see much more drama from the LTT side. The new CEO is going to go silent running for a while, which is probably their best course of action. Then release of statement that they're going to investigate the exemployee's accusations, but since it's a private matter they can't talk about a publicly. Which again is the most reasonable thing they can do.

In a week they'll start publishing videos again without talking about either event. Maybe in a month they'll be a follow-up on their new processes.

So for the next week everyone's going to brigade against LTT because it's fun to do, and then it will blow over.

The memes though, the memes will be legendary!

"Read the latest drama and how Linus is a horrible person": panik

"It's not Linus Torvalds": kalm

I was just happy to realize this afternoon that this is a different Linus than Linus Torvalds. I was very confused this morning how out of the loop I was to not realize The Linus had become a youtuber. Now this makes more sense (or at least I no longer care at all)

Hobbydrama needs a place on the fediverse.

I've seen that guys face on my recommendations before, but never watched anything because he looked like a whiny bitch 😂 looks like I was right!

I'm just getting caught up, never watched any of their videos before either. Was hoping the drama was just over something inconsequential but juicy & amusing.. but no, of course it's something icky and depressing.

Also this is from Linus Sebastian's email response to the Verge:

In addition to our existing report systems (both anonymous and otherwise) we’ve proactively reached out internally today to encourage members of our team to report any workplace bullying or harassment..

So they're proactively reacting to the allegations? Am I just really stoned?

Me watching everything go down.

This has been brewing for quite a while. The meeting after Madison left has been secretly recorded and leaked 6 months ago.

I'm waiting the ukulele song!

Me who has never subscribed to a single YT channel or "liked" any YT video:

YouTube is overrated and too ubiquitous

Same, I had heard of the channel on reddit but was never interested until now.

is there somewhere I can be updated?
