Been out of the loop last few weeks but damn, all of a sudden LTT has been getting so much hate lately almost everywhere I look.

~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~
~~LTT/LMG community. Brought to you by ******... Actually, no, not this time. This time it's brought to you by Lemmy, the open communities and free and open source software!~~
~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

As they should.
Linus has come out to be manipulative, extremely thin skinned, and the epicentre of most of what's wrong with LTT right now.
From rejecting content creators' pleas to redo shoots due to errors, belittling people for complaints both in the company and out in the community (including product partners), to being a source of the misogyny and maltreatment of women, it's clear that he himself has lost sight of what LTT was.
I've always thought something suss of him since he started becoming a bigger content creator. He just seems off as a person in general. His arrogance bleeds through his stupid face.
Im very much ootl and not a techie, but I do remember hearing a long while back about linus getting cancelled, and then strangely that he was uncancelled a month or so later.
mfw he was 'uncanceled'
side note, being drunk and high as I am right now, and as ootl as I am, and not paying attention to where in the lemmyverse I was poooostin, I assumed LTT was some monolithic media corporation until I was like halfway through the screenshots 😬
