    You’re already unpopular, Linus. You swept a workplace sexual harrassment scandal under the rug, were called out for your lack of proper testing, and your data is constantly incorrect.

        The improper testing has plenty of sources. They were trying to speed rush through testing and missed details.

        The sexual harassment doesn’t have hard sources. It got tossed in there as an afterthought as everyone dog piled him for being popular and the botched testing. No idea if it was really true or not.

      By “sweeping it under the rug” what you meant was “ARE NOT PUBLICLY COMMENTING ON POTENTIAL FUTURE LEGAL ACTIONS AGAINST THE COMPANY.”

      It really seems like a lot of the anti-Linus crowd gives way more of a shit about it than the actual victim, which is about par for the course with anything involving LTT.

      Wish people had the kind of energy for shitting on actual horrid companies that they do for this one.

        Wish Linus had the energy to be a less shitty person and NOT work his team at an unmanageable rate, and had a clear idea of what his company even is.

        Btw, nice condoning sexual harassment by completely minimizing it.

        Fucknuckle

        You’re down-voted quite a bit, but I agree, and I’ll die on this hill with you.

        I noticed the decline in quality and usefulness of his videos for me, personally. I was very disappointed at the path he took when Gamers Nexus called him out for shitty testing.

        In the grand scheme of things, there’re way worse people and companies in the world, and I don’t think he should be cancelled after that fiasco.

        The vitriol against LTT is beyond ridiculous, and from what I’ve seen, there’s no substance in the alleged sexual harassment. I’m open to any links showing otherwise, but I’ve seen precisely zilch that’s concrete.

        He’s had some horrible takes and I don’t watch a lot of his videos anymore. But he and his employees are not the SS.
